Trick or Treat

This was Baylee's FIRST year to go Trick or Treating. Last year we were living with Carl's grandmothers while our house was being built so we just stayed home and passed out candy. I had no expectations as to how this was going to go. Baylee is still a little young to know about trick or treating but boy she does love "canee" (candy).

The Russell's came from LaVergne to go Trick or Treating with us. This was RJ's first time as well. I am pretty sure that us parents had more fun watching out kids than they did getting the candy. This will be our last Halloween to get the kids together. The Russell's are heading back up North after the first of the year. Tear :(

I took this picture before leaving the house. No Baylee did not wear the pink crocs. Although they are her shoes of choice.

It was pretty cold this night. We bundled the kids up, put them in the strollers and were on our way.It's Spiderman!This makes me laugh because it doesn't even look like her. Fake smile with her nostrils flared out! Cracks me up.Our first house. RJ was a total pro. He knew exactly what to do right out of the gate. Baylee rang the door bell and RJ said the line...you know "Trick or Treat" :)Most all of the pictures I took came out pretty dark. A lot of our neighbors didn't have their porch lights on so it wasn't the best setting to take pictures, even with the flash on. Spidy!They remind me a little robots. haBaylee got a sucker from the first house she trick or treated. After that she was done carrying her pumpkin of candy. Being the little gentleman that RJ is, he carried it some and I did as well. Little Miss needed one hand for her sucker and the other to ring the doorbell.Ray doing double duty....carrying and pushing.RJ decided to take over but Baylee was having none of that. I don't blame her...he is dangerous! Look at that little smirk on his face.Isn't this the cutest picture ever? Well I think so anyway! I love these two...little peeping Toms! Alison and her bundled up baby girlWe had many slammed doors in our faces due to Baylee's "costume"! No not really but lots of jokes about our little cheerleader getting no candy. We should have known. People from Tennessee are almost as nuts about their UT Vols as we folks from Louisiana are about our LSU Tigers! Probably every two or three houses that we would come to had some UT staple.

Case in point..

After 2 pumpkins almost completely full with candy we headed back to the house. Baylee was so funny with Averly. Very gentle and loving but also a little bossy. She kept telling her "no-no baby" when she began digging in her own diaper bag. She also said "No-No Baby, that Daddeee tuff" (that's Daddy's stuff) when she stood up by the entertainment center and was playing with the stereo. ha

Check out the purple lips. That's from the sucker she worked on during our entire trip trick or treating.

Averly going for the plug in, all the while Baylee following close behind saying "NO NO"! Dressed in PJs and ready for bed. After the sugar high wears off that is!Silly GooseIn my opinion this was definitely a Halloween night to remember. It is going to be hard to top!
