Yes, holidays are an amazing time in our household! And All Hallows Eve is no exception! Dave specifically took off holidays so we could really pay attention to this week! It's been great! On Monday we took the kids to an actual 'Haunted Mansion' in Swan and it was pretty good.  Landon loved it, and Dave and I snuck in to see the 'scary' side.  It was well done and there were awesome treats and snacks for the kids for a great price.  Then, we concentrated on carving jack-o-lanterns (we did six this year and displayed them in the window), working on costumes, and doing kids crafts and baking.  We did skeleton gingerbread men and chocolate, Halloween shaped cookies.  The kids also enjoyed a play group Halloween party on Monday morning and we arranged for some awesome themed and healthy treats all day today! We started our morning with Halloween presents and breakfast and then dressed up so we could drive out to Great Grandma for early Trick-or-Treat and lunch.  Then, home for nap and snacks before the really candy hunt began! The kids loved dressing up and the day was amazingly warm and beautiful for walking around town.  After we hit all the houses on our list, we came home for pizza fingers and 'candy corn' parfaits before seeing the 'haunted' library for a tour! It was great.  Now, Dave and I are settled down watching 'Trick or Treat' and enjoying the last official hour of Halloween.
