Megan actually got to go trick or treating twice this year and pulled in quite the haul! A shopping center in Hillsboro was giving out candy on the 29th so she got some good practice for the big day. Just about everyone that saw her commented on how pretty or cute she looked. She really did make a perfect Cinderella! Especially when she is sweet and when she's getting candy, she can't help it.
We've always taken Megan into town to trick or treat at the store fronts. This year we weren't very impressed, maybe because it was a Sunday and many of the businesses were closed and/or the hoards of people that it attracts now. We decided that we would give her some time to go to some houses too. We took her to Josh's sister's neighborhood and it was great. I don't remember seeing any cars driving around and it was pretty quiet. We ended up hopping back and forth across the street to any house that had their porch light on. She got a little freaked out by the scarier decorations but as long as one of us went to the door with her, the candy was worth the risk. Josh and I both had a lot of fun with her this year. I think from now on, that's what we'll do and forget the storefronts. I do have to admit we made her go to more houses than she really needed to but we needed some candy for ourselves!
We got home relatively early and I threw together some baked potato soup that turned out REALLY good! Then it was time to watch the Steelers game on the DVR!
