First Trick or Treat

We ventured out for Aiden's first trick-or-treat on Thursday night, and it was a huge success! We were lucky enough to have beautiful weather for late October--it was about 70 degrees with clear skies--so that sure helped. Aiden acted like he'd done it hundreds of times before. We didn't practice saying "trick-or-treat" with him until about an hour before the evening's festivities began, but he used his own version (something like "tee-tor-tee!") and it worked just fine! He was kind of shy at the first few houses, but then he would literally scurry up to the other porches and dig his hands into the candy bowls. We got a lot of comments about how cute he was, and then of course how polite he was, since he would say "tank you!" after choosing his goodies. All in all it was a great evening, but now Mike & I have an awful lot of candy to eat!!! :)
