We had fun celebrating Halloween 2 weekends in a row. The weekend before Halloween my parents came down for a quick visit. We decided to go to the Houston Zoo that Saturday to participate in their "Zoo Boo" event. And I of course left the camera in the car, but Andy brought along the video camera, so we do have a few clips of the fun they had at the zoo that day. They enjoyed trick or treating, pumpkin decorating, some carnival games, and seeing the animals as well... On this particular day both girls decided to dress up as Cinderella and luckily we have 2 Cinderella dress-ups.
This was our first Halloween spent with family, it was so much fun for the girls to have Chase there.
A picture with Grandma:
The girls each got their faces painted. Rachel had a unicorn and Audrey had a heart balloon. The kids had fun playing carnival games and got lots of candy that night.
On Monday, the real Halloween, the girls, Andy, and Grandma went trick or treating in our neighborhood for the first time. Unfortunately I got sick that afternoon, so I laid low while the others went out. I had already offered to a friend in the neighborhood for her boys to go trick or treating with our girls (my friend had a 10 day old baby, a fractured foot, and a husband working late). So, Andy and Grandma were troopers to take 4 little ones out. For some reason we didn't take any pictures of the actual trick or treating, but the girls enjoyed themselves. Once again they were both dressed up as Cinderella. It was fun to have Grandma here to spend Halloween with us. We collected way too much candy - we're still working our way through it. But it seems to be like this every year. Last year around the end of March I was using candy corn to potty train Audrey. I just hope Santa knows that we don't need more candy put in our stockings! :)
