Halloween!

I love Halloween!  I think that holidays just get better as your kids get older and enjoy them more!  This year was a blast!  Jackson was so excited that when he knowcked on doors and smiled at people, they gave him candy!  He would look at us and yell, "I got a nodder cannie!" and "Dis Awesom!".  Brayden was a hoot too!  MY favorite though, Kirt!  My dad, Kirt, and I took the kids out this year and half way around the block Brayden told us his feet were exhausted and he needed to go home!  Well Kirt figures that half that candy is his and there was no way he was letting Brayden go home with half a block of candy!  So He pumped up Brayden and would yell with him about every piece.  He would race him to the doors and freak out over every candy he got.  Brayden was so excited and finished the rest of the block!  Last year Kirt convinced Brayden that the orange candy, (recess peanut butter cups) were the best thing to choose.  (they also happen to be Kirt's favorite!)  Brayden came home with 50 recess cups!  Kirt was thrilled!  Also, half way around Kirt started with his mathematics.  He figured that candy probably costs $4.50 a pound.  He figured that after 2 hours, each kid would probably have 2 pounds of candy.  With 5 kids that totaled $40 in candy.  We were making $20 bucks an hour!  He is so funny!  Here are some pics of my kids in costume!
