The festivities started on Monday and Tuesday when the kids were invited to wear their costumes to story time at the library! Conner even got to go trick or treating to the different desks there!
On Thursday we went to downtown New Braunfels for a city trick or treat. We got there towards the end and it wasn't very good. Most of the businesses giving out candy had already run out. So we headed up to NB High School. Now that was A BLAST!!! All the school's clubs had a booth with some kind of game or activity ending in a treat for the kids. Conner loved it - and he didn't even understand a lot of the games! He was so adorable, he would clap for himself at the end of each game. His ABSOLUTE FAVORITE game was a duck pond. They had a large bowl with ducks in it and each child got to pick up one duck. The duck had a number on the bottom (1, 2 or 3) and that was how many pieces of candy the child got. Conner loved it! We had to go back to it a second time right before we left. NBHS did a fabulous job, we will definitely go back again next year!
On Halloween day we had a church party from 4-6 where we ate dinner, the kids played a few Halloween games and went trick or treating to the classroom doors. This year Conner was the cutest cow you've ever seen! Instead of saying "Trick or Treat!" he would say "Mooo." After the party was over we went to the Powell's neighborhood so that Conner could trick or treat with his cousins. Daddy pulled him around in the wagon, and most of the people passing out candy were sitting in their driveway, which made it convenient because we didn't have to get Conner in and out of the wagon at each house! Next we went to the Legg's house (Ammon's coworker) for a party! We had a fun time socializing and eating chili! We didn't want to go home, but soon Conner's bedtime rolled around, and passed us by, so we had to leave.
