For our Halloween night we went over to our ward Harvest Party. We had a chili dinner with yummy Great Harvest bread. We had a costume parade for the kids followed by a trunk or treat. I really like this idea for the little people. Not that Allie really needs a lot of candy, but it's a quick walk around the parking lot for little legs and an efficient way to get a lot of candy.
After the party we headed out to see the Grandparents. We got to Papa Von's house last and had to wait a little while before they arrived home. Blake, Allie, and I had a great time handy out candy to the kids that came. I forgot how much I enjoy this part of Halloween. Papa Von had large candy bars that we got to hand out, and some of the kid's faces were priceless when they saw what they were getting. After, we went home and put our princess to bed beofre the Halloween witch came that night
Can you guess who Allie was for Halloween?
Princess Cinderelli
Wishing that she could turn this large pumpkin into a carriage for the night
A fun tradition that we just started is the Halloween Witch. Before going to bed you have to pick out a baggy full of candy that you want to keep. The rest of the candy gets put by the door for the Halloween witch to take. The witch comes that night, takes the candy, and leaves you a book. Allie enjoyed finding the witches hat and her surprise under the hat.

What a creative way to get rid of the sugar overdose! I always tell the kids that Jesus wants us to share and give away most of it... then they are only allowed 2 sugar treats a day. This includes sugar drinks or if they happen to get a soda or like a piece of cake or something. I like the witch idea though, that's much more fun! She's such a sweet little princess.
We do that too but a variation...this year yummy breakfast rolls were left for the kids. I like the book idea though! We'll have to do that next year :)
Love the witch idea! Allie makes a darling Cinderelli!
