Halloween

Halloween was a very fun day for the kids. We started out at the Community Center (where I work out) and they had them parade around the Community Center at 10:00am and trick-or-treat to all the different classes. It was fun for Sam because all of her friends were dressed up too! Her friend Kasey was a cheerleader and Justin was a Spiderman. Alden had fun getting carried around by his favorite daycare provider, Amanda, who was dressed up like a baby. He wanted nothing to do with me, so I just took pictures and had fun watching them! After that, we went back to the house and I took a shower and we headed to Nebraska City to see "Nebraska City" grandma and papa and to trick-or-treat at the mall. Great-Grandma Farmer was also there, so that was neat! Sam got the new Tinkerbell movie and a Harley Davidson shirt from grandma and papa and Alden got a toy with a pig in a bathtub (a very LOUD toy) and a Harley Davidson outfit from them too!

Next, it was time to head back to Plattsmouth and go to Grandma McKnight's house. She had books and sugar cookies for the kids. Alden ate his 1st Sugar Cookie, and he loved it! Auntie Debra met us out there and gave the kids books about Thanksgiving. We left there to stop at the Dental office and show all the girls and Papa McKnight their outfits. They got stickers from RaeLynn, who had her face painted like a Dalmation dog, and I'm pretty sure Sam was afraid of her and Alden didn't know what to think!

From there, we went downtown to be apart of the parade and to trick-or-treat at the businesses. Debra met us downtown and helped with the kids and Doug's last patient for the day canceled, so he showed up after the parade and helped Sam trick-or-treat too. Next, we went to the Methodist Church where the youth group was putting on a fun house. Sam played some games and we saw her friends Betsy & Maggie from Sunday School who were dressed up as Wizard of Oz characters.

After supper, Doug and Debra took Sam & Alden to Great-Grandma & Grandma Holman's house and Great-Grandma & Grandpa McKnight's house for trick-or-treating and a few other houses around town. I stayed home to pass out toothbrushes and candy to kids. I think Sam really enjoyed this Halloween, afterall, she had her Cinderella dress on from 8am to 8pm!!
