All the neighborhood kids!!

Two Vikings and a Lion

Trick or Treat!
We had a great Halloween. Luke and Liam really got into the trick or treating this year. Once they figured out they could go house to house and get candy, they were running door to door. Liam was so excited at the end of the night when he looked in his pumpkin and said, "Look, its half full Mommy and Daddy." Liam was a little partial to the people giving out suckers while Luke really did not seem to care what he got. Aiden went along for the ride in the wagon as he often does. John carved some pumpkins and the boys were very interested at how the pumpkins would light up. Luke and Liam were Minnesota Viking football players. We got several comments (positive and negative) about the Vikings. Honestly, we are not really Viking fans but the boy's favorite color is purple and they wanted purple jerseys so that is how this costume began. Aiden was a lion which was a costume handed down from Luke and Liam last year.
We also had our 7th annual Halloween Parade in the neighborhood where all the kids get dressed up and walk behind the firetruck. The boys love firetrucks so this was really cool. I think now they associate Halloween with firetrucks.
We also had our 3rd annual "Twin Friends" Halloween party. We all dressed up and had a great time eating and playing with all our friends. It is hard to believe we have known each other for three years already. It was a wild party with 6 sets of twins and two infants.
