Halloween 2014

This picture is to remember Andy's fish. It was time to throw it away, but we are grateful for the memory!

Halloween night was incredibly cold! It was getting late, so we decided to put Jane to bed and I would stay to man the candy. Spencer took the others out and made it to our circle and two houses in the neighborhood diagonally across the street. It wasn't worth more than that. Also, there was no need to go farther. Pat, who lives on the corner, answered their door and emptied their whole plate of candy into the kids' bags. It was a big plate. Pat and Stephanie love our kids and they weren't getting much traffic (I think they probably get the most from our circle) because of how cold it was! It definitely made for a hefty haul. Part of which is still to be found on top of our refrigerator. 

As for costumes, a month or two before Halloween I asked the kids what they wanted to be. They each had something picked out and it worked perfectly. Everything came from our dress-up box. I really didn't want to do much being 39 weeks pregnant, so I couldn't have asked for anything easier!
