Trick or Treat!

Last year we decided not to go trick or treating because we thought C was too young, but this year we were ready! Benicia has trick or treating on 1st street (at all of the shops) and this year it was on Saturday morning. We got together with a bunch of friends and went to get the kids prepared for the big night. Wearing the costume an extra day was a bonus! I really thought Caroline would be nervous to go into the shops and say "Trick or Treat", but she was a champ! She loved it!

Getting ready with Daddy! (I had bags personalized for all the kids)

With Trena and Sierra
Caroline and Mimi going to lunch on Sunday
On Sunday evening, we invited a bunch of our friends over for dinner before Trick or Treating. It worked out really well because the kids got to go out together. We left the house around 6 and were home by 7:15. Perfect for the little ones. My mom came over to pass out candy while we were gone because with all of the kids we get here, I was afraid they would burn down our house if there was no one here with candy! :)
Filling up!
Everyone brought glow bracelets/necklaces and Caroline couldn't get enough! I think she had on 10 before we actually left the house.
Ready to go!
Trick or Treating in style. :)
They were so brave. Caroline loved knocking on all the doors. She would race ahead of everyone so she could be the one to knock. :)
By the end, Trena needed the wagon more than the kids! :)
