Better late than never....Halloween!

This year for Halloween we went to "the church across the street" (who is letting us live in their parsonage for FREE...Praise the Lord!) for Trunks of Treats. This was my first time at something like this and it was fun- mainly because Kinsey had a great time and I loved seeing her face when she got CANDY! Here are some pics from that...


One funny thing...they had "fish races"...if you have never heard of this (like me)...they have two gutters and they place a goldfish in one end and you blow in a straw to make the goldfish swim to the other end. The fish that gets there first wins..well the people win..candy. It was hilarious...only in Gillsville.

Then on to Halloween night...we went over to Mark and Heather's to go out in their 'hood while the boys stayed behind to hand out candy, cobbler, coffee and cider (nice I know).
Kinsey was adorable in her "girl monkey" outfit except she wouldn't keep the hat on ...so most people were not sure what she was...thanks anyway Austin and Neely! Keegan was a "cowgirl"...it was nice to be able to reuse this from last year. We "treated" with a UGA football player and his cheerleader. =)
We had a great time until about the 5th house when a Monster "statue/dummy" fell over and his head went rolling down a driveway we were at....Kinsey screamed so loud that I think the whole city heard her. From then on each house was..."not going to scare me?" All in all they had a great time. Kinsey of course would dig into the bowls of candy each time...wonder where she got it?
