Trick or Treat

Over the last few weeks we have done lots of little things to celebrate Halloween. Asher loved going to the pumpkin patch in VA and the one in Indiana with his NeeNee and Papaw. He also enjoyed going to story time at Barnes and Noble and hearing Spookly and getting to make his own square pumpkin. We tried carving a pumpkin but that wasn't really his thing this year, maybe next. I think his most favorite part of Halloween (aside form the candy) has been his "monster books." His Nana got him The Monster Mash book and every night since then he has had to have it read to him at least once, if not more. He also has a silly monster book from last year that he loves.

For the six years we lived in Wyndhurst we always had a Halloween party. It was fun to invite friend over to eat chili, sit on our porch, and hand out hundreds of pieces of candy. It was definitely bittersweet not to be able to do that again this year. We were afraid to even go trick or treating in Wyndhurst because we thought it might upset Asher - everyone once in awhile he sit references "my house."

Instead our good friends Kamal and Alexis invited us to their church Trunk or Treat. Asher enjoyed hanging out with his little chicken-friend, Olivia! He pretty quickly got the hang of how things worked and enjoyed going up the multiple cars and saying "trick-or-treat." His favorite candy was definitely the M&M's!
