We decided to take the girls to Balboa Park for some Halloween festivies. We looked it up online, saw that it seemed to be "happening" today. Uh...total flop. Caleigh and Bella were like the only children dressed up at Balboa Park, and the only "happenings" we could find was a military flag salute/program. This kept their attention for about 5 minutes. We cruised around and Bella kept asking, "Where is Halloween"? Soooo...we took them to the merry go round which Cal refused to ride.
Ok, we HAD to find something Halloweeny-soooo we went to the strip mall near our house and took the girls trick or treating. They were THRILLED to go from store to store, collecting goodies. I have never done that before, but it was actually really cute to see all the little kids dressed up in the daytime and the local shops seemed to get a kick out of the adorable kids running around.
On Halloween night we went over to our good friends house for a pizza party and trick or treating. The kiddos had fun running around. The parents had fun watching and having some cocktails. The kids were soooo excited. Caleigh was a little apprehensive at first. Bella was totally into it. One of the highlights was Elmo's house (yes, he answered the door and let us take his picture-of course, the girls wanted NOTHING to do with him) It was just so cute seeing the kids run around going from house to house. They were sooo excited to see how full their pumpkins were getting of loot!
After the trick or treating (candy rush + margarita buzz) we ended the night with a laser beamed dance party! :)
Just a fun night for all-friends, food, laughter and memories...
