A church near our home has this Halloween event every year called Trunk or Treat. They decorate the trunks of cars, trucks and vans and you trick or treat to them in a parking lot. We took Pete last year but of course he wasn't old enough to enjoy or understand it. This year was totally different. P. teaches on Wed nights and I just figured I wasn't going to be able to go but the closer it got the more I wanted to try to go. I called a friend up to see if he would watch Jamie for me so we could go. Pete and I had a ball. It was his first experience with trick or treating and he thought it was the best thing in the whole world. You get to carry this bag and people dressed up as cool things give you candy. Pete loves to people watch. This was a perfect place to people watch and I think he could have sat on the side and watched people all night long. We stayed a little over an hour because my back and neck were killing me. I couldn't put Pete down much because he would wander and we would lose our place in line. I wish we could have stayed longer and watched the fireworks but that's ok. It was a great time just mom and son.
Here is Pete getting candy from Thing 1 and Thing 2.

Pete and our witch friend behind us. I am so mad I cut off her head in this picture. She reminded me of my niece Holly so much. She had the same voice and beautiful eyes and long eyelashes. Made me miss my sweet Holly.
Pete going through his loot at home.
Our wonderful friend Jim who helped make our night out possible. I thank God every day for providing us with love and support from our friends in MI. I don't know what we would do without them. Can you see poor little Jamie in the background missing out on all the fun. Next year sweetie, next year! Abby enjoyed the attention from Jim that she doesn't get anymore since those darn babies came along. :)
