Beggar's Night, as they call it in Des Moines, was tonight. Unfortunately, the weather is cool and rainy so we hit close neighbor's homes and headed back to our house. The girls enjoyed handing sweets out to other kids more than collecting the treats themselves. Ellis opened the door to the kids yelling "Happy Halloween!" When they left she either said "thank you" to them for taking candy or a simple "good luck". Leighton stood in the door and waved good bye. After the preschool, daycare and Darren's work party for kids, I think we're officially .
Have a happy, safe, dry Halloween from the Gibbons' family!
Making fall picture frames --stickers, lots of glue, leaves and a lot more stickers.
Making yummy treats with graham crackers, frosting and sprinkles.
At the treat table.
My good friend Debbie and her daughter Addison (Ellis' "best friendin the whole wide world" as she told me).
Mommy came to the party to help out. I got to put Halloween tatoos on20 little hands and arms.
Ellis with Miss Chelsea. As an activity the kids got to make their teachers into mummy's with toilet paper. They thought this was brilliant!
