Halloween 2017

Happy Halloween! This year we were not going to do anything but purchase a little candy and stay at home to watch a movie. Our friends Michelle and Darlaina had a great idea to have a little pot luck and then trick or treat in their neighborhood. Our church no longer does anything for the holiday so our choices have been limited and our kiddos are getting older.

Thayne and Lydia were thrilled with the idea to go out and party! So we quickly put together a Poppy the Troll costume for Lydia and Thayne went as a sloth. We had so much good food, shared company, and then headed out. Thayne lasted about 10 minutes before he reached his upper limits and started to say "none of this is real" under his breath. It is really hard to handle Halloween with sensory sensitivity. So that worked perfect for me. They had the experience and just a small amount of candy and we all went home happy and had time to watch 'Hocus Pocus" before bed.
