Sarah's first Halloween

For Sarah's first Halloween we invited Dwayne and Kelly and their kids to spend the night at our house. They only brought 4 of the kids with them, so with Sarah, there were 5 little ones running around. It was very different for me. Our house has never been so busy. It seemed like there were kids everywhere. Around 7pm, we got them all dressed up in their costumes, and hit the road.
They looked adorable. Chelsea (witch), David (Mike Myers), and Chance (bumblebee) were ahead of the group, running from house to house, Chaelyn (ladybug) sat in the wagon, and the Missy tried to follow on foot. She didn't have a problem walking in her bunny costume, but she had no interest in staying with the group. She wanted to go her own way...on the road...through the grass.
She didn't care much about the candy that people were handing out, she just wanted to run around and have fun in the dark. After visiting about 20 houses, she got tired and cranky, so I put her in the stroller and we finished trick or treating that way.
Kelly and I came home with the 3 youngest ones early, so they could go to bed, while Dwayne and Peter took the other 2 kids around the block. They collected so much candy, it was unbelievable. When they got back, Peter cooked us all a big and juicy steak dinner on the BBQ. The rest of the kids went to bed shortly after dinner, and the 4 of us sat in the rec room and talked the night away. It was a great Halloween night for us all. I'm happy we were able to share it with our friends!
