Halloween Night

We had such a fun Halloween here in CA! There was a chance of rain throughout the day... in a place that we've only seen rain but 2 times in our 3 months of living here! God held out for us and there was no rain - hooray! The girls had a fun day at school with parties & a dance outside on the playground area...lots of Hannah Montana songs - they had a ball. That evening we got together with some neighbors for some pizza before heading out to collect our treats.

Our time of having an input on what our children will be for Halloween has somewhat passed. My idea of a family theme costume was lost in one trip to Target! Everyone picked what they wanted...no more surfing the internet for that 'adorable' costume - Hannah Kate does not like adorable to be a word that describes her attire... she prefers hip & cool:)

The Halloween-ready Caseys

Madison was some star in "Camp Rock" Hannah Kate was an Army Diva Caroline was my pink horse (really a unicorn, but didn't go there with the explaination!) and Grayson was my horse while I dressed up in my Cheyenne, WY gear as the cowgirl... the only matching family members!

The Neighborhood Gang ready to go!We walked & walked around the neighborhood. It was so fun to have a good ol' fashioned Halloween - kids running throughout the neighborhood with little to no cars driving by and no worry of who's house we were going to...most everyone knows everyone. The girls made it around the loop while Daddy & Grayson passed out candy. The girls finished the loop then wanted to see who was coming by our house, so home we went to pass out candy.

Caroline checks out her goodies!

It dawned on me in the afternoon that I have yet to unpack their trick-or-treat bags. I did a quick look in the garage, but could not find them, so the girls were off with their pillow cases... just like their mommy did when she was little:) Once home again, Caroline was all set to dig into the treats... tested a few with only a couple of licks and chowed down on the good stuff until we put her into bed!

What's more fun that chillin' out with friends and watching a movie after trick-or-treating! Hannah Kate actually moved to the couch and fell asleep watching the movie - busy day for everyone!
