Happy Halloween 2009

We spent Halloween with some great friends. Hannah Claire had a blast. We were a little concerned she would not dig her costume. Boy were we wrong. She LOVED it! She wore it to school on Friday. When I picked her up this was the conversation I had with her teacher.

Miss Jenni - We had to take Hannah Claire's costume off not long after she got here.

Me - What? Why? Did she not like it because she loved it at home?

Miss Jenni - Oh no, Hannah Claire love it, but the other kids were chasing her around pulling her tail.

Sometimes mommies don't think of the little things. Crazy kids!

Ok, back to Halloween night. We went over the the Cryer's home and had chilli before we got on the hayride to go trick-or-treaking. HC was ready to go.

I love that precious tail!!!

We had a trailer bed full of kiddos. They had a blast!

Parent's were instructed to dress up too. Shane & I were white trash before but my costume no longer fits (post HC). Although Shane had a great costume he was probably not the funniest.

That would be Ron. Not only did he provide the hayride for us, he put together quite the costume. He also did performances in the middle of the road while the kids were hitting the homes up for candy.

Hannah Claire learned the routine real quick.

She would let them put some candy in her bag and then try to bust a move around the home owner into their house. Thank goodness for the tail so we could rein our little trespasser back in.

She liked the sucker, wrapper & all.

She did NOT like the giant spider. Poor baby!

We had so much fun! Hannah Claire enjoyed her candy once we got home. She didn't get any, well except for the starburst she managed to open out of the two pack and chew up halfway with the wrapper still on. That pretty much put a stop to playing with the candy.
