Halloween 2017

It was a cold Halloween this year, but that didn't stop us!

We went to Royal Oak's Spooktacular event on Sunday with the Donoghue side of the family.  Reese's unveiled their new candy bar at the event, so we got a lot of freebies!

Later that evening we carved our pumpkins.  Maggie did a pretty tricky one with Daddy (mostly supervising), and Evie and I worked on a simple face for hers.  Jamie did a Ghostbuster pumpkin (which didn't show up very well in my picture), and I did a pi pumpkin (because pumpkin pie is too much work).

What terrible parents let these girls outside
without coats on?!

Jamie took Evie to his school for the "safe Halloween" event that the students host.  Maggie had physical therapy on Monday, so she couldn't make it to Foley.  Luckily, the facility had a little trick-or-treat event too, and her therapist helped her take a scooter around the building to collect treats.

Ventures do not scare Evie

Tuesday we went over one of Maggie's friends' house to trick-or-treat with some buddies.  It was chilly, but she was running all over the place having fun.  Evie did not want to miss a single house, though her little legs (and lack of intensity) meant that we were always trying to run and keep up with the group!  I got some good exercise which was quickly cancelled out by eating candy!

Halloween was fun, but I'm honestly glad it's over... it's turned into a week-long thing rather than one night.  I've had enough of costumes!

Here's a video of Maggie being a teacher and teaching us the days of the week (and Evie shadowing):
