Yesterday we went trick or treating with our playgroup friends. We were to meet them uptown (the same place we went last year) at 5:30 but with the Saints game (Who Dat!!) we wanted to make sure we were able to get through the Dome traffic and to our destination on time meaning we were ready to go a bit early. This first picture is Chance sitting on the couch in costume being bored waiting till it was time to leave the house.
We arrived a little early at State Street so we decided to hit a few houses before everyone else joined us. This picture is Chance and I returning from the "big house on the corner" our first trick-or-treating house of the evening.
Chance did an excellent job this year, he remembered exactly what to do and was very excited to get tons of candy. Either Scott or I walked up to a few houses with him but he did most of them all on his own, well actually with his little friends. They went up as a team each saying trick-or-treat and thank you.
Last year Chance was a little worried when we got to the houses that were really decorated for the holiday but this year he was very brave taking on the scary houses with little hesitation. Candy is a wonderful motivator. This picture is Chance, Octavian and Ximena in front of some awesome decorations.
Chance had a great time and didn't really want to leave but we had walked all up and down the portion of State Street that is closed to cars so it was time to leave. After we got home we turned on the game and dumped out the candy. Chance got a serious haul of candy between trick-or-treating, the parade Saturday and the playdate on Friday.
We've decided to let him eat as much as he wanted then taper him off on Monday after all it is Halloween.
This is just a photo of some of the decorations at the first house we went to. Where we went most of the houses go all out for Halloween.
P.S. there may be actual piano purchasing today, I'm so excited, Thank you Nana and Grandpa Von!!
