Stirring and Stirring Her Brew…

Stirring and stirring and stirring our brew, Ooo ooo, ooo ooo

Tip toe, tip toe, tip toe, BOO!
Happy Halloween! (That’s Sam’s favorite Halloween song they sing at school, by the way).
On Halloween Sam’s school had their annual parade. Last year the weather was so horrible that the kids had to parade inside the church, but this year, although a bit chilly, was as sunny as could be. Our little witch marched along happily with her friends dressed in their trick or treat finest (with about 10 Elsa’s from Frozen…). Is that the cutest witch you’ve ever seen?
Here’s her scary witch face!
After school, we went to Grandmom and Poppy’s house so they could see her costume.
Poppy stole Sam’s hat and Grandmom stole her spider’s hat for the photo, but Sam and spider didn’t mind.
Right before trick or treat time, we went out for some photos. Pop Pop came over to celebrate with us and to help give out candy so Mark and I could walk with Sam together this year.
Sam insisted that our whole family dress up. She wanted us all to be witches but I explained that boy witches are wizards, so she let Daddy get away with a wizard costume instead.
Sam must have asked Mark a million times if she could have his magic wand after Halloween!
Boo!
We thought Sam would enjoy trick or treating with her friend Julia this year so Julia came to our house so we could get going. I mean, Belle, came to our house, not Julia. What was I thinking?
They happily trekked up and down the street, going way farther than we ever have before. We walked for blocks to every house with a light on. The kids were exhausted by the time we were done. I think we walked for about 2 hours. Sam was beat and was happy to finally go home to look at her loot. She wanted to give out candy at our house. She loves doing that almost as much as trick or treating. Actually, she asked me if next year if Daddy and I could go out and get candy for her and she would stay home and give out our candy to the kids who came to our door. Um…no. All in all – a great Halloween! Lots of good candy, an adorable costume, and a sunny day for a parade. On to next year! What will Sam be?…..
