Halloween Party

William had a Halloween party at school this year! Luckily, he has the nicest teacher who scheduled the Halloween party around my work schedule and Amelia's nap. You don't get that just anywhere, people.

William was NOT sure about wearing his Halloween costume. We tried to wear (read: I tried) it to a library storytime for costumes without success. He appears to be all into it until and excited until you have all of the pieces of costume in place. Then, he is immediately unhappy and begins taking the costume off. Please note: There are exactly two pieces to his costume this year. A hat and a jacket. Knowing the fickleness of my particular three year old, I didn't want to invest in a complicated or expensive costume.


So, I was totally shocked to walk into William's classroom at school and see him happily wearing his Halloween costume. His teacher really is awesome.

We decorated trick or treat buckets. We ate cookies. We went trick or treating to different doorways in the preschool. It was SO much fun. Amelia was very welcome and there was another younger sister there about her age.
William carefully decorated the inside of his treat bucket. I asked him if he wanted to put any stickers on the outside of the bucket and he just looked at me. Why would you do that?

The kids all decorated cookies with sprinkles. This was important work.

Amelia couldn't be bothered with sprinkles. There was COOKIE. And FROSTING involved. Someone might change their mind and take away the cookie. COOKIE.
