Jacksonville takes Halloween VERY seriously, and by the end of it I am so ready for it to be over. This year was no exception: 3 Halloween parties, 2 nights of Trick-or-Treating and an insane amount of candy, which I managed to almost completely unload when we passed out candy. But the kids had a blast.

One cute story from the night: I told Annaliese that if she kept her pigtails in, people would give her more candy so she actually kept them in. Much to my surprise, I was right!! That little stinker made out like a bandit! Her pumpkin had almost twice as much candy as the other kids! She'd just stand on people's porches after Cora and Corrine headed down and smile at the people and say "thank you" or "Happy Halloween" one more time, and they'd give her another piece of candy. She's something else!
