Trick or Treat


So, this is it--the last Halloween related post I have for you...finally! This year we (and especially Josie) trick or treated to death. Four times actually. Our first time was after Pumpkin Shine when we joined the Stewart family at their church for the annual trunk or treating thing they do. This is our third year there and Josie's warm up to perfecting her request for candy from strangers. We also went to Josie's MDO church for their trunk or treat, Josie also trick or treated during MDO....all of this before Halloween actually got here. By Saturday night, Josie was ready to go and had started to think that Halloween was a permanent state and trick or treating was something she was gonna get to do every day for the rest of her life. Saturday night we went with my niece and nephew, and thank goodness because Jordan spent a lot of time carrying Josie for us. Liv was with us for 2 of the trick or treating nights and I missed her in every picture....I'll do better next year. Josie was a big hit with everyone she met--and she especially liked the 'coyote' (actually a homeowner who answered the door as a wolverine, Josie howled at him and wanted to pet the coyote) and clown that gave her candy. Kevin especially liked the house that was passing out frito pie. Everyone wins. By the time we made it to the McKee house, we were all tired. We came in and rested and visited with Kris, John and Baby Lillian while Kevin retrieved the car. Halloween was a week ago and Josie still talks about going back to Halloween land....
