Trick or Treat!

This years weather was perfect for a gallivant around in costume!  Kale has many costumes around here so he waited until the day of to decided which "workerman" he would be... fireman (after a little guidance away from the plumber he randomly suggested about 10 minutes before go time).  Ava sported the trusty skunk costume.  Kale wore this... remove the bow tie and stick in a hair bow...good to go!




Too cute not to share!
 This year we were invited to our friend Addison's trick or treat birthday party!  Here's the whole crew!


We captured a fierce tiger!
 Around here, everyone asks for a joke when the kids are at the door(we didn't do that in Everly, just a  "trick or treat" did the trick.  So, I quickly prepared Kale with a couple jokes which he was already feeling hesitant and embarrassed to say "trick or treat."   Here's how it went..
Woman:  Happy Halloween
Kale: (hesitantly) Trick or Treat
Woman: What's your joke?
Kale:  (silent)
Woman: Do you have a joke?
Kale:  (pause) Knock. Knock.
Woman:  Who's there?
Kale: (long pause) Orange.
Woman: Orange who?
Kale: (longer pause)  orange...house.



Tricksters still playing pranks.. pretending to "sleep" on the drive home.-- couldn't fool us,
our kids RARELY sleep in the car. Why? I have no idea!

A few of our neighborhood gang.
