Brass Monkey...Chunky...

Celebrating Tessa's first Halloween. Here we are arriving at a Chili Cookoff/Trunk-or-treat at the church.



It was raining in Philly, so instead of having the kids go around begging for treats at everyone's cars, we all stayed indoors. Tess and I took a walk down the hallway to check out what candies were available.



We decided not to actually walk around with her collecting candy. Instead we gave her one wrapped up ring pop, and the crinkling plastic kept her attention until the trick-or-treating was done.



So we just hung out with Aunt Miriam and passed out candy.



By the end of the activity, this is how our little angel was feeling. And we didn't even make her walk around a neighborhood. Afterwards we went home, passed out candy to the neighborhood kids and watched the Phillies lose.

You're good to not have collected candy for her. I totally collected candy for Emily...for myself. (She got some smarties and a sucker or two...) :) (P.S. Emily looked like that at the end of our ward Halloween party too. They're twins I tell you. ;) )
