You know those
families who have perfect matching costumes each year and look totally
awesome on Halloween- we are NOT one of them. I’m just not very good at
thinking of, or executing that kind of plan. That being said, I think this year
was a touchdown (pun intended), or at least as good as it is likely to get for
us. Boston and Riley were football
players and because I couldn’t find them matching jerseys, I was the
referee. Instead of trying to have
Boston toddle around the neighborhood to trick-or-treat, we headed to the
Trunk-or-Treat our ward was hosting. It didn't take Boston long to figure out that
all he had to do was hold his hand out and someone would put a candy in it. For
a while he was happy to get the candy then drop it in his bag. Then he decided
it was more fun to find people to hand his candy back to. Usually the candy had already been drooled on, so he didn’t find many takers. But it was still
cute and nice of Boston to share, since we totally ran out of candy (in my
defense, I thought I had bought oodles).
We then headed to
Jamba Juice, where they were giving out free smoothies for kids who were
dressed up. Silly me, I thought if Boston had his own smoothie, he would leave
mine alone. I was very wrong. Even though I had to fight for my drink, this was
definitely our favorite part of the night!
