Happy Halloween!

It's Halloween night and the weather is beautiful...Zach was counting down the minutes until he could head out! He insisted on being a "ghost" this year and we ended up creating it after school hours before he went trick-or-treating. Here he is with Heidi and Katie, neighbor girls who sometimes babysit him.
Here he is next to the pumpkin he helped carve. Believe it or not, he was the only ghost we saw all evening!
Before picture of the empty trick-or-treat bucket...but not for long! :)

Zach taking a short cut through a neighbor's yard...he got an apple at this house! :)

Zach trick-or-treating at his friend Luke's house...We also hooked up with Lisa and John's family and went around their neighborhood! Zach had a blast and all the kids' legs were beat tired by the end...but their buckets showed the rewards of all that walking!

After picture of the trick-or-treat bucket...not so empty now!

Can you see something that does not look like the others? Zach went to a neighbor's house and said "trick-or-treat" and the neighbor said "I'll give you a treat" and came out with this apple. It was a really yummy apple!

Great pumpkin and Halloween costume. Our kids had an unusual "treat" offering as well. They were each given a package of Ramen at one house. Funny! They still got plenty of candy. Too much, really! Love you

That's cute.
We have a costume that looks just like that. Little John was a ghost one year as well. Oh...he actually just told me that it was just a sheet hanging over his shoulder and we painted his face and hair. oops.
lil John also says this year the kids each got a 24 count box of crayons. It's always fun to get something different.
Cute Zach!!!
