Trunk or Treating

After being at Grandpa and Grandma Heileson's house we went to their ward for trunk or treating. They do it every year and the kids enjoy it. I also like how it's an easy way to get candy. Our ward never does it because our ward is pretty much the neighborhood and they figure that we would all end up buying twice the amount of candy to give to the same kids. So since our ward doesn't do it we always go to Grandpa and Grandma Heileson's. It lasts about an hour and the kids enjoy it.

Kaelen this year didn't really like it. He doesn't like big crowds and so he was not sure what to think of all the people that he didn't know around. He also doesn't like people in all of their costumes. Kaelen is so different from our other kids. He is social around us and talks all the time but when he is around people he doesn't know he is very quiet and to himself. heck it has taken us now over a year for him to finally go to nursery without us in there with him. He loves being around family but that is about it.

We had to drag Kaelen around to all the cars. A few cars he went to himself but after 3 or so cars he decided he was all done. We had to pick him up and carry him around everywhere or hold his hand.

Rachel and Jacob enjoyed themselves. It didn't take long for them to be done but once they were done the ward was doing homemade scones and hot chocolate. Rachel and Jacob really enjoyed that. It was fun for them to get candy with all their cousins. The weather outside as well was perfect. It was supposed to be cold and rainy but we didn't get any of that. It was a little cool but nothing to complain about. It was perfect weather for trunk or treating and trick or treating later in the evening.
