I am grateful that all trick or treaters will be able to go trick or treating on the day of Halloween this year. It's hard to believe that a year has gone by since Hurricane Sandy struck. Going to the mall last year for Halloween treats was not our favorite, and although we were grateful that they did this for the kids it wasn't the same. Thankfully Governor Christie agreed to not "cancel" trick or treating and that he postponed it until November. Trick or treating in November last year felt odd, but I'm grateful that the community gave of their time because it made all the kids happy. 

It looks like it's going to be a perfect day to go trick or treating tonight with temps in the 60's. I remember the weather being colder in past years, and was grateful that my mother in law bought Noah a cute dinosaur costume which kept him warm. At any rate it looks like these kids are all ready to get some  treats. 

This year will be the first time trick or treating without Sierra & I'm glad she was here this past weekend to see her sibs in their costumes. 

If you follow me on instagram there's this fun video of Sierra and Noah fighting with light sabers (trust me...it's worth the 16 seconds!) She had so much fun with him when she was here. I also hope Noah will be in the mood to go trick or treating tonight because he was being anti-social at our yearly church trunk or treat this past week. He stayed in the van with me while I was passing out candy. He didn't even seem to care that he wasn't getting any. I think he feels he can sneak some from his sisters because the next morning he managed to sneak a three musketeers, some whoppers, and a starburst for breakfast! Crazy boy...hopefully he'll be in better spirits tonight with the neighbors, and get some candy of his own! Luckily his sisters didn't mind. Could be because of his fighting efforts with his light saber.
  

Hope all your kids, grandkids, godkids, nieces & nephews have a happy and safe halloween evening! Can't believe this month is almost over! 

**For past halloweens you can go here.
