Monday night was very fun as families gathered at the on campus housing for trick-or-treating and a movie. Instead of knocking on doors, the candy passers sat on their porches with bowls of treats for kids to come up to. There are 12 houses on campus, and there were extra adults on hand who sat in chairs in various locations handing out candy as well. Some people had also taken the time to decorate the street and had ghosts hanging in the trees and glowing ceramic pumpkins scattered around.

Aberly was very excited to see her friends. Isla was super girl this time. Her brother, Finn, who Aberly adores as well, was Spiderman. Ever since seeing him that night, any person in a Spiderman costume is "Finn!!!". Isla's nanny, YaYa, was also there and we got a picture of her with both of the girls. YaYa watches Aberly for us when I sub and Aberly loves her, and she IS wonderful. We are so blessed.
Aberly and Isla started out trick-or-treating together. They were so excited that they would run by candy stops unless we called them back. Aberly did a GREAT job of saying "trick-or-treat" in a quiet voice, followed by thank you in a quieter voice. At least she said it!
After getting her haul of candy, Aberly sat on the bleachers and zoned into the Pooh Halloween cartoon playing on projector. Mommy let her have three candies and with the warm air, chocolate quickly coated her hands.
Before going home, we got a great group shot of the kiddos in costume.
