trick-or-treat!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

from...
Jaden, the Grim Reaper
Gabrielle, as Hannah Montana...
and Corinn, the Fairy

our first stop, was Nana & Grandpa's of course!


then we headed to Natural Chimneys for their campground trick-or-treating

super fun!


Margaritaville was awesome!

it's set up by the couple that runs the campground & i hear they go all out every year

u walk in on this side...


and get a healthy treat from a hippy on this side...


~lol~ actually, it's nice that there are those that give out something other than candy, candy & more candy! and guess what - the bag of pretzels that Corinn picked up here, was one of the first things she chose to eat!


the lady giving out the healthy treats took my picture too - again, i got quite the reaction from people when they spotted me in my Pillary Hinton costume ;0)


it was neat to see how the different campers decorated their sites


this creepy guy had a haunted tunnel u could go thru - but said it wouldn't open till after dark


after the reaction that some of the scary costumes got out of the girls, we didn't go back to check out the tunnel - even tho gabby asked to like 3 times! she thinks she's so brave!



this witch directed the kiddos into her canopy for treats....Corinn knew better & headed the other way


good call Corinn - this guy, sitting hunched over at the table, scared Jaden & Gabby as they reached for the candy


as we were about to head to the car, jaden spotted this suspicious looking figure....it was sitting very still & appeared to be fake - jaden asked me if it was real & i told him i wasn't sure....he got closer to check it out & just as he was about to touch it, the head turned to look right at him & scared the u-know-what outta him! ~lol~


that was his favorite part! ;0)

well, except for the amount of candy they brought home!
remember, this isn't counting what they'd already gotten from school & daycare parties - and these bags aren't tiny!!!


after we got home, jaden wanted to show off the "eyes" i rigged into his costume, since it was good & dark outside...he ended up really liking the effect, and actually scared a few lil kids at the campground....i'd say that makes the costume a success in his book ;0)

This was the first year my kids got to enjoy Halloween. We've either been in Africa...or travelling every time. It was SO much fun...I think almost more so for J & I! Is there anything cuter than little kids all costumed up?!
