trick-or-treating: take 1

last year we headed to downtown plymouth with jessica, who had just gotten in from haiti, and justin, who had just gotten in to visit, for some pre-trick-or-treating around the businesses. we had such a great time that we decided to do it again this year, and headed to plymouth last nite for a practice round of trick-or-treating.
mom met up with us and dave actually got out of work early enough to meet us not long after it started. we were able to run into our friends, the york's and story's, but could only chat for a few minutes as the kids wanted to keep moving!
while we were waiting for the trick-or-treating to start, we sat outside of vanity salon where hayden met his new best friend, aiden. aiden was also dressed up as spiderman and these two were inseparable to whole evening.
hayden started complaining at about 6:20 that he was tired and wanted to sit. when we told him we could just go home he yelled that he didn't want to. but then continued whining about walking so much. right...like he ever gets tired!
talan was stuck in his stroller for much of the evening but dave did pick him up and carry him for a bit. maybe tonite we'll try letting him walk a bit. he doesn't like to walk with us, so we'll see how it goes.
we finished up a little earlier than 7pm and then headed back home to eat dinner and get ready for bed.
the boys got quite the stash of candy, and to think last nite was only the beginning!

waiting for the trick-or-treating to begin:
he wore his mask for a little bit at least...i actually think his head to too big for it:
there was a call and spiderman came running to downtown plymouth:

sucker #1:
only part of the line that wound around plymouth:
hayden refused to have his picture taken with this chocolate chip cookie:



aiden insisted on holding hayden's hand every time they crossed the street:
this is where we got suckers telling us to vote for some dude for judge. but another judge gave us full size twix bars. guess which judge i'm voting for?!:
shark attack!:


aiden and hayden:
sucker number 2. this costume was really sticky when we got home:

talan has no idea this thing is supposed to be scary:
