Halloween

We had a great Halloween.  Grant really got the whole process of trick or treating this year.  He was so excited to go get candy but I think he was most excited about handing it out.  Saturday before Halloween we went to the Stake Trunk or Treat.  I made the rounds with Grant and Linc collecting candy while Mike handed out candy at our car.  Once we got back to our car all of us helped hand out candy (well Lincoln was eating a sucker so he didn't help much).  Grant really enjoyed handing out candy.  At one point we ran out of candy and Grant reached in his bucket of candy and started handing that out.  It was so sweet to see him be so unselfish. 



Halloween night, Mike was back at work in Chandler and we stayed in Clarkdale.  We attended the trick or treating event in downtown Clarkdale and it was CRAZY busy.  Clarkdale provides all the candy to the houses downtown and closes off several of the streets.  It is a great idea but it gets super busy. 

Grant's favorite part was the house that was completely decked out in Peter Pan theme.  They had a boat, plank, and even a place for the lost boys.  Grant thought it was so great.

We only stayed downtown for about 45 mins and then went home and we had a few trick or treaters stop by our house.  Grant made sure they kept their manners and told them to say thank you when they didn't say thank you.  He even thought some of the kids were too old (I think they drove themselves to our house).  All in all it was a great Halloween and I loved my little pirates.
