Trick or Treat, Smell My Feet...

"...Give me something good to eat, if you don't, I don't care, I'll pull down your underwear." Turns out The Cosby Show comes on at 1:30am in Houston (Ch. 11, CBS, in case anyone is wondering). This little jingle was on a Halloween episode the other night. I even remember watching this particular one back in the day...

This was Kaylynn's very first Trick or Treating experience. And yes, in case you are wondering, her mean ole' Mom and Dad even let her eat 1 piece of candy (a plain Hershey's Special Dark, that's the "healthiest" chocolate there was).

This year Kaylynn was dressed as a fairy. We got to reuse her 1st Birthday tutu and just bought her some wings and a wand. However, upon seeing the wings for the firs time she declared "Butterfly. I want it." So fairy, butterfly, whatever. Ben was...a caddy? an English boy? a mushroom? The verdict is still out. It was a little houndstooth outfit with a cute little hat, but the poor thing didn't even remotely fit into it. He wore it with pride anyways!

So here we are, the pregame show. Kaylynn was NOT happy about putting on her costume. We got her in it by telling her that PapPap wanted her to wear it. Proof:

And with Ben.

Our first house was the lady across the street. She lives with her elderly mother, and they were both thrilled to see our cute fairy and little guy.

And we're WALKING. (have any of you seen that Progressive Commericial with Flo...and we're walking...Kaylynn and Meese love that saying.)

This picture was taken ever so quickly. Not 2 seconds later, Kaylynn was pushing Ben away. She'd had enough. We bribed her to take this picture with a sliver of her chocolate.
Here's the little man. He also wasn't thrilled with wearing his costume. Actually, I think he wanted milk. :)

And lastly, the kids all dressed in their Halloween pj's again. This photo op did not go well. I think there was hitting involved...it was traumatic. I can't remember. :)
