Halloween 2007

We started off Halloween by going up to Brian's school. All the grades parade around the school yard and then walk a few blocks around the neighborhood. It is really neat and a lot of the school's neighbors go outside to watch the kids go by. Then they line up for pretzels and water bottles.

Next we went trick-or-treating! The kids were in a full sprint to the first house and then quickly off again. We could barely keep up with them! Brian lasted much longer than Sean did! Each of them filled about two whole plastic pumpkins! Yikes! They were so happy with their loot! I felt bad for Sean because he kept asking to eat candy and most of what he got was off limits because of his dairy allergy! Poor kid has never had chocolate - I really hope he outgrows it soon!
