Halloween night was busy but fun as always. Mom and Grandma Hatch were both in town and came over to go trick or treating with us. We pretty much walked the entire subdivision. Every year the kids amaze me at how much they can walk. Hudson wanted to walk with the big kids all the way until the very end when it was way past bedtime.
We had been out for awhile when the kids raced up to a door, knocked and no one answered. The kids eager to maximize their time quickly turned around and headed over to the next house. I looked and noticed Hudson was not trailing behind them. I turned back around and found him still at the door knocking away. "Come on Hudson they are not home, let's go to the next house" we told him. "No, get a treat (which is his version of trick or treat)!" he insisted and stood there. He kept knocking as we called for him again to come. "Noooooooo, get a treat!" he said again frustrated. He was not budging. We had to walk up to the door and pick him up with him still fussing about it. He was so confused why they wouldn't open their door. It was hilarious.
One house in the neighborhood was decked out with all sorts of spooky things. The kids walked up to the front door and someone popped out and scared them. Emma stayed with me in the street and was having no part of it.
Deke and I finally had to cut them off, we headed back so they could dump their buckets and start trading. They sat and counted, grouped and traded candy until it was time for bed. Another fun Halloween at the Burch's :) :)
