trunk-or-treat

 On Sunday afternoon, St. Cecilia Church/School (where Keatin goes to preschool) held a trunk-or-treat in the school parking lot. For those who have never heard of it, basically people open up their van/car trunks and hand out candy from there! It is actually a pretty big deal...people had decorations, lights, and games set-up and someone even had bite-size cupcakes baked for all the kids! (Yes - they were safe.) :)

Our friends from Des Moines (Megan, Troy, and Baby Mia) actually made the trip up to Ames on Sunday and joined in the trunk-or-treating fun. (Troy and Keatin were born 3 weeks apart). The weather was GORGEOUS on Sunday...like 75 degrees...like warm enough that Keatin was sweating in her costume and I didn't even leave Will's on him the whole time. Who would have thought one would have to worry about their kids sweating in their halloween costumes - ha!!! There is another trunk-or-treat this weekend at St. Thomas (where we go to church)...will have to see if we are ready for some more trunk-or-treating fun!

 Keatin and Will...getting ready to hit the trunks!

Troy, Will, and Keatin...Troy was a police officer...which is perfect b/c his dad is a cop in Des Moines!



I kept trying to tell Will that trunk-or-treating was fun...at this point, he wasn't digging it. :)

But once I let him out of the stroller for a bit...so much better. :) (And yes - his eye may look droopy in this picture...we have been battling some eye goop/eye infection for a couple days now!)

All done and getting ready to hop back in the van...I love these 2 pictures. :)
