All day yesterday, Brandon and I were trying to decide whether or not to take the boys trick or treating. We went back and forth; we don't give the boys a ton of candy, but then we wanted them to get to wear their costumes again and thought that it might be kinda fun. Once we made the decision to go, we couldn't decide where to take them. Should we drive the 15 minutes to my parents house? Should we stay and just go to the few houses in our neighborhood? Should we take them across the street to a nice neighborhood and wander through a couple of streets?
So after a half debate, we finally decided that we would take them and we would go to the nice neighborhood across the street. We waited until the boys got up from naptime, fed them a quick dinner, and got dressed up. We were lucky this year- the weather was gorgeous. Since the boys are so hot natured, we didin't have to bundle them up under their outfits. They were so excited!
We parked in the country club parking lot of Fremont Hills, and wandered up and down a couple of streets. Greyson kept saying that he wanted to keep going and get more candy, so we decided to head to the other side of the neighborhood. They didn't quite get the concept of saying "trick or treat" but everyone just ooohed and awwed at them.
Brandon and I loved watching Greyson aka "the crazy monkey" run full force from house to house. They listened very well. Once we got to the other side of the neighborhood, we stopped a could of times to take a candy break. They were so cute sitting there. A few of the houses were having block parties and had the big inflatable haunted house outside of their door, so you would have to walk through the inflatable to get to the front door or the candy. Daniel was a little creeped out by it, but was determined to get the candy!

We finally headed back to the house after a couple of hours of being out. Brandon and I were exhausted, the boys had to go potty, and Daniel was wanting to be carried. All in all we had a great time and finished up the night watching Hocus Pocus. They didn't really watch it, they were just digging through the candy!
