Halloween

We had a blast Halloween weekend.  We went to the "Trunk-or-Treat" at church, and with a hundred kids running around, it was exciting and chaotic.  Beck did manage to get trampled (by a nine-year-old) while he was crawling around, but he was not hurt and recovered quickly.

Here's Ramsey as a witch.

Beck as a monkey, at least before we left.  Yes, he is crunching on a graham cracker bribe.

What he actually wore....Halloween pjs.

My boys--too handsome!

After we put Beck in the monkey costume, he would not stop fussing, so we did a last minute costume change.  We planned for this since Beck gets overheated easily, and Ramsey got really sweaty last year in her monkey costume.  All's well that ends well, I say.  I got second place in the chili cook-off, and we got a moderate amount of candy.  Ramsey was mildly interested in the candy and Beck was oblivious.  She asked for "a chocolate" that night and the next day, but then all was forgotten.
