Halloween 2010

(Our little Kangaroo and the Mighty Spider Man)


Halloween this year was pretty fun...it was the first year that Odin really got the concept...last year Cort was just a baby and we pushed him in a stroller and Odin would just walk into peoples houses when they opened the door (thank goodness we only go to ward memebers houses)...so this year was fun because Odin practiced knocking on the door and saying Trick-or-Treat and he is a little man after my own heart and LOVES candy and Cort was old enough to walk around and copy his brother and just be the cute boy that he is...Chuck was working out of town and wouldn't be home until Sunday so he didn't get to go with us but my sister Brooke stopped by the house and was SO KIND to stick around and help me take the boys around...We laughed the whole time...of course Odin got shy and wouldn't say Trick-or-Treat and Cort was so happy to be outside that every ghost, pumpkin, green grass, really anything made him stop and point...so what should have taken maybe an hour to go around our ward members houses took 2 hours...
and this year Cort was the one who just walked into peoples houses...I wish I had taken the cam-cord instead of the camera because Cort thought he was so smart and he would get candy from them then turn around walk a few steps away then turn back around and walk up the the people again like he was a new person just so he could get more candy...and of course everyone gave in because he was so dang cute about it...Brooke and I have never laughed so hard watching these two Trick-or-Treat...it was A LOT of fun...
Now Odin thinks that he needs to wear his SpiderMan costume all the time and go Trick-or-Treating so we have to explain to him all the time that we only do that once a year...

Since Chuck wasn't home on Saturday I didn't go to any family members homes and Chuck took them on Sunday to his parents house to Trick-or-Treat...this is Uncle Bobby answering the door when we knocked...I told Odin to say "Give me all your Candy" instead of Trick-or-Treat...the only problem is that backfired and Grandma and Grandpa Taylor let them have all the candy they wanted...I guess that is what Grandparents are for :)
