Trunk-or-Treat 2016

I have never been super into Halloween and it hasn't been until Emmy was born that Sean and I have tried to dress up together.  Now that I will have 2 children born around Halloween time I have decided that it would be fun for them if Halloween was a big deal and we really tried to celebrate it every year by dressing up and doing fun activities.  I decided to go with Peter Pan family costumes this year and they turned out so fun.  Sean always loved Peter Pan as a boy and Emmy is really into the Tinkerbell movies on Netflix so she was very excited to dress up and wear her fairy wings around.


Wendy and Tinkerbell in front of the car decorations.  One opening had a bowl of cooked purple rotini and the other had candy.  The parents all thought it was very clever, but a lot of the little kids didn't understand at first.  Some of them were so polite that if they grabbed out a cooked noodle they would just drop it into their bag, say thank you with a confused look and wander off with their head hanging down.  I had to call them back and explain that the treats were in the other opening.


Tinkerbell and her pumpkin ready to hit up all the trunks for her treats! Peter Pan took Emmy around to all the cars and showed her the ropes of trick or treating.  By the end of the night she was a pro and had no shame going in for as much candy as people would let her grab.  It was tons of fun to see her start to realize that people would give her candy if she went up to them.


The whole gang after a fun night of Halloween Festivities.


Emmy and Dad were very excited to go through and sort the candy, a Halloween tradition.  Some of the people were giving out full size candy bars, what a treat!!

Happy Halloween!
