The kids had such a good time trick-or-treating last night. Audrey was so cute -- she wouldn't say a word until we put her back in the wagon and started on to the next house and then she would say, "tat too! Tat-too!" (Thank you). This happened after every house. Darling. She also had a death-grip on her bag and didn't let it go even once the whole time we were out.
Seth also loved it this year. Last year we visited two houses and he wanted to go home, but this year I think he would have continued for a few more hours...
It was a great chance for us to meet our neighbors on the street. We've got quite a group -- from a woman who is turning 90 in December (her husband is 91), to a couple from the Netherlands that are here for just a couple more years and then they're going back, to a couple who built one of the first homes in the neighborhood and has seen all the growth in the last 35 years. Almost everyone we talked to said they loved this neighborhood -- despite all the snow they get. We keep getting warned that we are going to get a ton of snow in the winter. I guess the snow storms just re-circulate and dump and dump. We'll make it through this winter and then I guess we'll see if Luke is going to get that snow-blower he wants...
