The Princess and the Bunny

While the girls do enjoy trick-or-treating and we enjoy the time with our neighbors, I don't get really in to the holiday. Evie picked out what she wanted to be (a princess) a few hours ahead of time and someone gave us this bunny costume that happened to fit Gracie so that's what she was! :) They were both very pleased and felt quite fancy collecting candy (which they have thankfully forgotten about ;)) in their little bags.
We ran into our good friends, Amelia and Daphne at the first house! Amelia was also a princess and Daphne was a chicken - the bunny and the chicken were too funny together!IMG_4648.JPG IMG_4653.JPG IMG_4655.JPG
Grace's favorite candy was anything in a crinkly wrapper :)IMG_4661.JPGIMG_4666.JPG 
Nathan's grandparents were in town from Oregon so they and his parents came over Thursday evening as well. Great-Grandpa went around to all the houses with us, much to Evelyn's delight :)IMG_4663.JPG
After going around to the front section of our neighborhood we went back to hand out candy. This was actually Ev's favorite part. We started to get low at one point so she dumped half of her candy into our bowl so there that there would be enough for all the kids! We had about 60 kids in all I believe (based on our neighbor friend who does a graph of the trick-or-treaters every year - lol - I've copied his statistics at the end of the post ;)).IMG_4674.JPG IMG_4675.JPG IMG_4677.JPG
It was such a pleasant evening, we all enjoyed sitting outside!
We were glad our girls got good bonding time with both Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa before they flew back!

Our neighbor Dan's trick-or-treat summary and graph - lol!
"Here's the trick-or-treating results for 2013 (the bold green line)! Down to only 58 this year (that's 5 below the 5-year average of 63/year). Haven't seen numbers that low since 2009. Visitors were surprisingly consistent throughout the evening except for the burst between 7:00-7:15.
Fellow nerds-enjoy!"480657_10151942843803908_784349657_n.jpg
