For trunk or treat the kids dressed up as Rachel - a Diva ( a costume I bought on clearance last year from Target ) Madison - a cat (her costume from last year) and Jake - Tigger ( both the girls have worn this costume).
For Halloween trick or treating, Rachel - a McDonald's milk shake ( great costume my mother in law found at Goodwill and brought Rachel a day or so before Halloween) Madi - Barbie Cheerleader (Rachel's costume from last year) and Jake - Tigger.
The kids made out like bandits. I was really worried that Jake was not going to participate. At the church party he would not go to anyones car. He sat at our trunk like a bump on a log. But on the actual night, he went around our neighborhood with no problems. No shyness, no scaredy-cat ness , nothing. We decided that since he was having such a good time, we would take him to another neighborhood with the girls. He fell on someones stairs and hurt his leg and got embarassed so that was it for him. He and Scott went to the van and by the time we got back, he was growling out the window at us.
The kids got so much candy, plus we had a lot left over from what we bought. Since our neighborhood is kinda out of the main stream of things we only get like 20 kids. I would LOVE to have more and always buy more just in case. Let just say, I finally had to put the candy in the pantry so it would be out of sight, out of mind (for ME) ... yeah right!
Tomorrow we are having Young Women in Excellence at church. We are doing an awards show theme. These are the "awards" we have for the 4 girls that are getting the Lifetime Achievement award- or the completion of Personal Progress!
