Halloween

Ahh, Halloween night is here at last. Miles has been looking forward to this night for several months. So the kids got dressed up in their costumes

and out we went into our neighborhood. This hat had no chin strap, and it was windy tonight, so the hat spent more time being carried than worn.

I'm not sure Quincy really knew what to make of it all, he just kept looking around at everything and everyone, he didn't say much or make many noises at all.

Miles was excited, he loved seeing all of the decorations, especially at night with everything lit up, and some of the things moving and making noises. He was a bit nervous though and couldn't manage to say "trick or treat" at any of the houses, but he did remember to say thank you to everyone, so at least he remembered his manners!

After we got home, I resumed handing out candy, with Quincy right by my side for every trick-or-treater until it was his bedtime. Quincy loved seeing all the kids coming up to our door. Once Miles finished his treat, he joined us at the door and soon took over handing out candy. After Quincy went to bed, Miles and I sat out on the front steps and Miles was even more excited then he had been when he was out getting candy. He loved having trick-or-treaters come to his house, and he loved giving them candy. He got so excited for each and every set of trick-or-treaters that he thought were coming. It was just so unbelievably adorable.
