 Maggie had a hard time keeping up with everyone.

 Giselle the strangled, dead, pregnant lady. Awesome costume!:)

Gabby really wanted to "host" Halloween this year, so we headed down to Pleasant Grove to go trick or treating in Gabby's neighborhood, which is awesome because they live in a townhouse.  Which means twice the houses in half the amount of time.  The kids really hit the jackpot, especially Maggie.  She would just ask very sweetly if she could have 2 pieces or just stare at them as she reached in for another.  She also had a hard time keeping up with all of us.  
It was perfect weather for trick or treating.  Just a little cool and still light out, when we started out.  We kept having to tell the kids a few rules.  Rule 1- only ring the door bell once and do not bang on the door.  Rule 2-do not be like a lurker and pier into the windows.  Rule 3-Say Trick or Treat and Thank you!:) 
They broke 2 out of 3 rules.  Take a guess which ones!:)  The kids were done before we even got through Trish's whole complex.  Each one of them kept asking, if we could go home yet and they were tired and done.  Kids today!  
One funny/almost sad thing that happened tonight.  We brought Biscuit with us to Trish's and he LOVES watching Gabby's pet hamsters run around the cage and will follow them around their whole cage.  We went up there to watch him do it for a while and Trish even opened the cage to see what he would do.  He didn't do anything.  Then we all went downstairs and Biscuit was upstairs with the hamsters unsupervised. We called him down a little while later and he came running down.  David looked at his mouth and noticed that he had something white in his mouth.  So then Biscuit laid down and David saw a little white thing come out of his mouth, then Biscuit ran after him again, caught him and then dropped him waiting for him to run.  David then stopped Biscuit and Trish caught the hamster.  It was awkward...luckily the kids saw none of this going on.  The hamster was very wet, but appears to be unharmed!:)  He loves playing with the zhu-zhu pets and we believe he just thought it was an extra small one and was trying to "have fun" with him.  Oh good times!! It has been a great Halloween season and we always look forward to this holiday at our house.
