Before he headed out to trick or treat, we had to get a few pictures of the fireman with his firetruck. I don't remember what Scott was doing behind me in order to get Karsten to smile, but it worked!
Jenn, David, Eden and Elam came over for dinner and trick or treating. We raced through dinner so we could get the kids dressed in their costumes and hit the neighborhood for trick or treating.
A quick family picture before we head out.
It took a couple of houses, but the kids quickly settled into a routine of saying trick or treat. When I would remind Karsten to say Thank You, he would say 'Trick or Treat - Thank you'. So cute :)
Headed to the next house. He wanted to bring along fire puppy, so it got to ride in his pocket.
Dorthy was handing out candy - complete with her ruby slippers.
The kids had lots of deliberation about which candy they were going to choose at this house. When he turned around and left this house, he almost ran smack into a kid dressed in some kind of transformer like mask. I thought Karsten would be scared but he just laughed and laughed and laughed. The kid didn't know what to do so after a minute of awkwardly standing there he went along to get candy. His parents thought Karsten's reaction was pretty funny too - but when the kid came back I heard him make a comment about how we were laughing at his costume. Oops!
We told Karsten and Eden that they could each choose one candy to have right then. I asked Karsten to show me his sucker and smile, but he refused to look at the camera. Little stinker.
Eden was between Skittles and Milk Duds - wise choice, she went with Skittles.
Enjoying their candy -Karsten was drolling all over the front of his fireman jacket. It must have been a good sucker.
Sticky fingers after enjoying his sucker.
After we hit several houses, we decided to head home and hand out candy to the trick or treaters at our house. Karsten had a lot of fun with this part.
We hit a slow period of trick or treaters so Karsten headed out to the driveway to look for more kids. He must have seen us put our hand above our eyes like this, but to him, it must have looked like we put our hand flat against our head - too funny.

It was a great Halloween - thanks to Jenn and David for coming over to enjoy the evening with us!
