Trick or Treat

The boys had a good time tonight with Trick or Treating...or I should say Landon did. Grayson wasn't too big on getting dressed up. I think he would have been more excited if he knew there was food involved. He wore a lion costume that we borrowed from a daycare worker. It was suppose to be 18 mos...but it was a little snug. Landon was a knight. He had to be a book character at school They had a parade and had to carry the book that character came out of. He chose one of his Magic Tree House books or as he calls them a "Jack and Annie" story. You could also say we had a Chronicles of Narnia theme with Peter and Aslan. Landon is posing next to a full size drawing of his skeleton that he and his reading partner did at school. "Dem Bones" is the old poem that goes...the knee bone is connected to the thigh bone...the thigh bone is connected to the hip bone, etc...." We walked to our neighbor's house but when we got to their driveway the light wasn't on, so I asked Landon if he wanted to go to the next house. He said, "No it's too cold I need to put my snowpants on." I guess that's what it's like to trick or treat when it is 20 degrees outside. On another note, we have this awesome jack o latern that Layne carved. I went to open it to put the candle in it tonight....it was frozen shut! We went to our church and had some fun at an indoor festival and then to a friend's house to visit.....it is now 7 degrees outside. We have had a lot of clear nights so it has been exceptionally cold! (Colder than normal)
