Trick or Treat!

My kids had such a good time tonight. Stinkerbelle is getting big enough to be a lot of fun. I'm sure I'll have some more really nice pics to post tomorrow once Uzz sends me his shots. He has a nicer camera and a better eye. He should since he's a professional, I suppose. But, here are my humble efforts.

Here are the kids before we headed out. It was a pleasant 55 degrees or so, which was nice had it not been for the north winds.

Hot Rod was digging getting M&M peanuts to match his little M&M guy. Notice, he is still wearing Viking gear under the costume. He wanted to be a Viking M&M, he said.

We all took turns walking with Stinkerbelle.

A man and his M&M.

She was mesmerized by Pooh and Tigger lawn ornaments.

Pickle actually carried his phaser the whole time he trick or treated. Cracked me up. The kids were pretty good about letting us go through the candy before they ate it. We don't let them eat Tootsie Rolls, Starburst, etc. because the dentist ruled those off limits to keep their teeth in good shape (or keep them from getting worse). Here is Stinkerbelle and dad going through and sorting candy.

I hope they sleep well. We allow them to pick two candies to eat after we get home and they're really good about it. Good kids, I have.

    They were too freaking cute, but Stinkerbelle is just too cute for her own good!!! Mini-Uzz (aka Pickle) and Hot Rod were just all about CANDY and had a blast! After we finished, and Pickle talked me into driving around, he said that this was the best Halloween ever!!! Kids!!

    My favorite is Stinkerbelle's little red coat. Too cute!

    Inspired by Yoda, I am. I find myself doing that way too often lately. :)

    And, the red coat is soooooo precious. This is why women have children. It was a Baby Gap special. Regular $59. I wouldn't that much money on a coat for me that I won't outgrow (no fat jokes allowed). But, we got it on sale for $15. :) She looks gorgeous in it. The old ladies on our street were loving her.

    Right, no Tootsie Rolls or MilkDuds allowed here either. The sealants on the teeth were $17 per tooth, so a 'free' caramel was not going to get a chance to pull at any dental work.

    A Viking M n M, heh heh. He's a sweetie!
