It’s Halloween! Last night was like Christmas Eve in this house. The kids were too excited to go to sleep and were up by 6 this morning.
This year I am a classroom parent for Lauren’s first grade class, which means I was responsible, along with another mom, for putting together the classroom Halloween party. We brought in a craft and then the kids broke into groups for a game of wrapping one of the group members up as a mummy. It was pretty funny.

After the party the school holds an all school costume parade. Unfortunately it was raining so instead of having it out on the field and open to all parents, it was held in the gym and open to only classroom parents (happy I volunteered this year!). Lauren decided at the last minute that she didn’t want to participate (apparently her dress was too long and she was afraid she was going to trip on it), but Sophie the vampire marched happily.
On Halloween evening we invited some neighbors over to the house for pizza before heading out to trick-or-treat. It was a quick get together because every kid was bouncing off the walls to start trick-or-treating.

Luckily the weather cleared and the kids were able to trick-or-treat with no rain and unseasonable warm temperatures. It was a good night!
