Our Hallowee-kend....

Was BUNCHES of FUN!
Here's a recap of all our TRICKS and TREATS...

Halloween Morning TRICK:
Starting off our day waiting in line for 2 hours to get the H1N1 vaccine.

Halloween Morning TREAT: The relief of having this controversial decision behind me and the hopes for a healthy winter! I'm done obsessing.

Halloween Afternoon TRICK:
Killing Rylee's beloved pumpkin

which was quite traumatic...

for both kids.
Halloween Afternoon TREAT:
Eventually realizing that pumpkin guts are FUN!
And even Jacoboo cheered up.
temporarily.
Halloween Evening TRICK:
Trying to get a monkey and a bunch of bananas to sit still and look at the camera.


We finally opted for individual shots...
and yes, they are certified organic ;)

Halloween Evening TREAT:
Duh!
Although at first collecting leaves was far more appealing then candy for this little monkey.


but eventually there was a change of heart.
Especially after she got her first taste of Hershey's chocolate :)Day after Halloween TRICK:
Our Security alarm going off and Rylee making friends with the policeman that showed up in our driveway.
Day after Halloween TREAT:
Enjoying some gorgeous fall weather outside as a family.

Happy Halloween Everyone!!!!
