Happy Halloween!




Charlie and Lisa stopped by this afternoon for some quick pics since the Harvest Party at church didn't quite bore them enough to capture some cute shots. They were way too interested in all the activities to sit still! So, here's our second try!



We didn't actually trick or treat, we just went to the neighbor's house to say hi. We didn't even have shoes on! Eliot thought it was fun though!

We practiced several times today. Eliot would hold the bowl of candy (thankfully he has no idea what that all is yet...)and I would say 'trick or treat'. Then he would give me the candy and we would clap. He was a natural. I think he has the gift of hospitality...


It was a rather slow night for our block this year which was quite disappointing. But Eliot got to use his new skill for a night. Each time the kids would say goodbye and we'd shut the screen door, he would give me the "more" sign with the biggest grin on his face. A couple times we caught him standing at the door waiting for more kids! It was quite cute.
