"Twick or Tweat, pwease!"

The boys have been sick all week with H1N1 so they were alitle worried they may not be able to trick-or-treat. But everyone healed beautifully and we were able to go. Me, Ben, Will and Andy headed out around the neighborhood about 6:30pm with our neighbors, the Guidrys. David stayed back with Mr. Guidry (also Dave) to pass out candy to the kids coming by.


Ben, dressed as a Knight (his costume from a few years); Will (dressed as a nerd - something we pulled together in about 20 minutes - a great idea from my girlfriend, Dena - thank you!); and Andy (as Elvis - his costume from last year - still very cute!).


We went around our entire neighborhood - the boys getting their bags overloaded with candy. They had a great time. Taking turns knocking on the door, even Andy. He loved saying "twick or tweat, pwease." Most of our neighbors participated - which I love, because the kids really love the tradition of Halloween.

Andy looked so cute as Elvis. We spray painted his hair black and spiked it up to get more of the look.

After we made our rounds in our own neighborhood - we went over to a friends house - whom I hadn't seen in 10 years. Funny enough - she lives just in the next neighborhood and I had no idea. So the boys and I loaded in the car and went over to visit and maybe get some candy. My girlfriend, Angie, and her husband have four-wheelers, parked in the garage - and that was enough to keep the boys occupied for HOURS. I was able to hang out with my girlfriend and catch up and the boys had a great time. Her husband was nice enough to take them each for a ride around the nieghborhood on the four-wheeler. Their first time! They were SO excited. Asking him to go FASTER, and FASTER.

Will got the first and longest ride. He was LOVIN it! Then Ben got his ride - he didn't want to ride as long. Then it was Andy's turn - and Will got a 2nd ride with Andy. Big FUN!



Will wanted to try on Angie's husbands scarey masks. Lovin this look!

We left at around 10:30 pm to come home. The boys all got showers and went straight to bed. They were worn out! It was a great day with family and friends!
