Take Candy From Strangers Day

I totally forgot to take pictures today! Well.....Jorja and Preston dressed up as frogs. Stockton wore his copter cap and was a helicopter. Maysen made quite a cool costume. She was Cackletta from Mario's Super Star Saga. I have no idea how to spell that, but I am quite impressed I remembered where it was from.

Anyway, Preston kept calling today 'take candy from strangers day'. He was so cute trick-or-treating. He would march right up to the houses (sometimes in the houses), say 'trick-or-treat' and 'thank-you....happy Halloween'. That boy is not shy at all. We only went down two streets, but it was enough. One house had awesome cotton candy. The house two doors down from us had a whole bunch of chairs for people to sit on. They were cooking scones, serving cider and handing out full size candy bars. Makes our tootsie rolls look pretty pathetic.

Stockton's friends were the first ones to come to our house. They asked Stockton if he wanted to go trick-or-treating with them. He was gone for a LONG time and came back with a ton of candy.

Maysen had a lot of math homework today. A LOT. Her teacher said that she knew it was Halloween and she didn't care. I find that quite annoying. I don't think they need to not give any homework, but hours of homework for one class on Halloween? She should be able to enjoy these last few Halloweens she has as a kid. Anyway, that is my opinion. She worked with Mike for a long time on her math. They didn't finish....more to do in the morning.
