Cider on Board: Trick or Treat

Happy Halloween! This holiday is so much more fun with kids. We had an absolute blast.

Our only fall decorations this year

The day started off with a costume parade, trick or treating, and party at preschool. We have a couple of costumes so Genevieve was a giraffe for preschool. She was not a fan of putting on the costume. But she loved it once I got it on her.

Every day after preschool, Genevieve wants to stop and talk to the "turtle man" as I call him. (No idea why I decided to call him the turtle man.) She likes to point out his flag, eye, hat, back and shoes. Yesterday she also insisted on pretending to feed him some of her Halloween candy.

After nap time, we headed to church for trunk or treat. For the evening, Genevieve was a ladybug (same costume as last year) and Eleanor was a bumble bee. We decorated our car with a rubber duck shower theme. The ducks were a hit with the preschool crowd. Many tried to take the ducks instead of the candy. Genevieve loved handing out candy to the trick or treaters.

After trunk or treating, we went door to door trick or treating with our friends in their neighborhood. Genevieve loved it. We only hit up a few houses on their block. The first house we went to Genevieve and her buddy Connor walked right into the house and were playing in the living room. Good thing it was our friend's neighbors and they thought it was adorable.
