First Campfire - 2010

Tonight we went to a friend's house and let the kids experience their first campfire. We didn't actually camp, we just visited for a few hours. We had a big, roaring fire and cooked hot dogs right over it. Of course, you can't have a campfire with hot dogs and not have smores and hot chocolate. It was a lot of fun and thankfully none of the kids fell in the fire. :)

Halloween 2010

We went trick or treating in our neighborhood again this year. I have always liked doing it old school and taking the kids door to door rather than to busy, crowded festivals. There is just something about taking your kids trick or treating the way we did as kids, that I find to be a very neat experience.

All dressed and ready to go!
Getting excited... about getting lots of Halloween candy and the Texas Rangers World Series Game Four!

Our first stop... our neighbor's house.
My neighbor is a real fireman and he dressed up in his fireman gear to take his kids trick or treating so I just had to take Tyler's picture with him.
Back home from trick or treating now we are passing out candy to all the kids and of course having a little candy of our own.
Tyler and Whitney really enjoyed passing out candy to the others. I was so proud of them. Hannah, on the other hand, refused to pass out any candy. Ha!
