Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween Everyone!

Landon and I went to church this morning. He got lots of Halloween treats from members of the congregation. Lukas had his first bad dream last night. We watched a halloween movie with vampires. He was up a couple times last night and confided in me that he thought there were vampires in his closet/attic. Needless to say, he ended up in our bed half of the night and he slept in for church.

On Friday night, it was trick or treat night here in Vandergrift. The boys got a lot of candy on Wednesday, so I talked them into lighting our halloween lanterns and their pumpkins and handy out candy for the other kids. This is actually the first year that we handed candy out at our house. I made it fun for them and let Lukas stay in his costume that he wore to school and Landon wore his little halloween shirt. I also gave them two glow sticks each. The fire truck was driving around and came up our street, stopped in front of our house and gave the boys a big peppermint patty. They were so excited! It was a bit chilly out, so we only stayed out for about an hour then we headed back in our warm house. We did get more trick or treaters and the boys loved when they would come to the door. Lukas was so cute with this one little boy who was dressed as a dragon. He had to be about 1.5, little younger than Landon. Lukas opened the door and said "Hey buddy, Happy Halloween! Here you go, have a good night. Bye, Happy Halloween!" He was really into giving out the candy. As I watched him, it seemed as if he was an old man giving out candy. It was very precious. After we shut the lights off, he said "Mommy, can we hand out candy next year? This was so much fun!" I told him we sure will if it falls on a different day than Leechburg's night.

Posted are two pictures. One is of the jars I made (Lukas made the tiny little ghost on the right) and the other is the boys.

Hope everyone had a Spook-tac-u-lar Halloween!
