happy halloween

I've never been a big fan of Halloween, but it's now one of my new favorite holidays. Tate was a pro at trick-or-treating. Well...he was after the first house where he ran right into our new neighbor's living room. :)

Several neighbors gathered at Trent and Megan's and headed out together to trick-or-treat. Our herd included 21 adults, 10 kids under the age of 3, 1 dog, 2 wagons and 1 cooler of beer (guess whose). Surprisingly, we weren't the only group of this size roaming the neighborhood - there were people everywhere.

Lindsey, Dan and Pop joined in the festivities, and Lindsey was nice to be our videographer for the night. She caught some cute moments, as seen below. And speaking of Lindsey, Halloween was a milestone - Tate actually attempted to say her name for the first time. He usually just laughs and punches her. Whatever he called her was indecipherable, but it definitely had two syllables, so it counts.

Note: Most of these videos are best viewed when laying down on your right side. Ready?

"Puppy!!"


"Trick-or-Treat!"


"Whatcha got?"


"Hurry!"


"Are you going in there?"
