The kids had a blast for Halloween 2017 and, as always, we did a lot of activities to get plenty of use out of those costumes. HA! First,we went to our town's Halloween parade where the kids absolutely cleaned house on the candy. My goodness. :)
Then, we went to Hersheypark in the Dark one night. It was really warm that day, so that worked perfectly with their costumes. It was so full so we didn't do anything but trick-or-treat at the park, grab a milkshake and head home.
On Thursday, October 26, Oma came for a visit to see the kids go trick-or-treating, and to spend the night so she could attend Carter's Storybook Parade at school on Friday (I was going to be playing room mom at Addison's party at the exact same time and it broke my heart that no one was going to be there for Carter's parade). But Oma saved the day! The kids got SO much candy on our trick-or-treat night.
On Friday, Addison had her Halloween party at school (no parade) and Carter had his Storybook Parade where they choose a character from a book and write a short report and dress like them. Carter choose the "angry boy" from Angry Dragon. It was perfect because we had everything already except the red hair spray, which we were able to grab from a local store. I thought he looked just like the character and he really got a kick out of having his hair sprayed red for the day! (My shower, on the other hand, looked like a crime scene washing it out!)
Thanks for coming, Oma!
