Trick or Treat!

This year for Halloween, Averie was a tulip fairy! She was so dang cute, I took quite a few pics. We had a trunk-or-treat at the ward party, but it was inside this year (thanks to mother nature). All the ward members set up in classrooms. I taught her how to say trick-or-treat, and she did pretty well, until she figured out that everyone had candy. She then proceeded to not only take candy out of bowls that were offered, she also took from treat bags that were not. Sorry to all the kids that she stole from- I can say that the candy was enjoyed. While we were eating dinner (kids running all over) Averie decided to help herself to all the treat buckets left on the ground. Since there were so many, I didn't know which kid was the owner. Thanks for the suckers and the m&m's! We had a great time. Halloween night (since the ward and school trunk-or-treats take all the fun out of Halloween) we went to dinner at Wingers with Holly and Grant. Then home to the pumpkin thieves (they stole all pumpkins at houses around us, but not ours-it must be the ferocious beasts that we own). All in all, a great start to the holiday season!
