Trunk or Treating

You see, we have no traditional trick or treating here in sw fl; we have to trunk or treat! The church down the street was clever enough to come up with such a cute event for our kids. Although we didn't feel good, we made the most out of it. Threw on an old costume and let a kid be a kid. Hannah was the only one trunk or treating. M claims to be too old and in all reality, she is. My eldest is a pre-teen guys! This is nuts. She's growing way too quickly on me. Funny story; i picked her up the other day and she was talking about 7th grade, I was thinking she was a sixth grader still and she's like, "Mom, I'm in 7th grade." Omgarsh. Excusez?
She brought a friend home to make some goodies instead. They made cookies, chocolate drizzle caramel popcorn and hung out most the night. I pretty much played with the cute puppies.
Since our Halloween is over and the monsters have left the building, I'd love to see your costumes and fun, leave the links below! Enjoy and have a safe, happy halloween!

The orange and choc lollies on your bickies are perfect for Halloween 'trunk or treating'. Your girl looks way too cute to be scary, though. She's gorgeous in er costume. x

Trunk or Treat - very cute! I may have missed this, but why isn't there traditional trick or treating in your area?

Either way I 1000% agree that kids need time to just have fun and be kids! So much pressure to grow up so fast these days. Ok, I've officially aged myself, ha.

Looks like you had an amazing Halloween. Went hiking on Halloween and sadly, there weren't many squirrels dressing up this year.
