Trick or Treat

Up until about Halloween we were being pretty stingy on how much sugar/sweet we’d let Gavin have (pretty much none), but for Halloween we figured we’d let him enjoy the whole experience…candy included.  Once Gavin discovered suckers, he we in heaven.  What more could a 16 month old, who LOVES sticks ask for…a stick with something sweet and sticky on the end!

We didn't get a chance to make Halloween cookies this year….

But we did carve pumpkins

Help Mommy make my Halloween costume…

 

And wear it around everywhere the week before Halloween

Decorate our front door with cobwebs and Mr. Skeleton

Saturday night was our ward Trunk or Treat and Jared and I had fun making decorations the night before for our car.  Gavin went as a king and Jared and I were his loyal subjects (hmmm….sound about right)!

Like I said – Gavin loved the suckers!

Gavin loved getting candy almost as much as he loved handing it out

 

We also went out Trick or Treating on Monday.  Gavin didn’t understand that we weren’t going in to visit people, and would walk right in like he owned the place when people opened their doors!  This one home had their front window open and there was a guy sitting inside on the couch with a black mask on.  The window was right at Gavin’s level and he kept staring in, unsure what to think about the masked man.  Let’s just say… Gavin is NOT a fan of masks!
