Happy Halloween! Though it was a bit of a gloomy, rainy day, we still had lots of candy-filled fun! The girls had drawn faces on the pumpkins to be carved, and I think they came out smashingly....
Todd had to work in the morning, so my mom and dad came up to join us doing a bit of daytime trick or treating at Marist. One of the dorms on campus does this trick or treat, and they also had games and crafts for the kids. It was adorable -- and the girls loved it. I think Ainsley, in particular, enjoyed it, as it was early enough that she didn't get to tired. She has a bit of a runny nose, so she got tired pretty quickly today...
Once home, we carved pumpkins (Sarah enjoyed the gloppy part especially...), then we watched the Gators win (!) and went out for a quick, rainy trick or treat around the neighborhood. Ainsley's teacher lives down the street, and the girls decided we should start there -- which was perfect. Mrs. Burk had special little treat bags for each of them, and let them come in for a tour and to pet her dogs and cat. The girls loved it.
Then a few more houses, before they both decided that trick or treating in the rain wasn't so fun... and back we went and they became the designated "Candy-hander-outers" which worked just fine for me!

Waiting for Dolly and Papa...

The Kitty and the Butterfly.
