Gnome, Sweet Gnome...Sweet Gnome

The boys really stepped up this year and were good sports about wearing their costumes. We had a difference of opinion on the beards though. So, we compromised and wore them pinned to our shirts rather than on our faces.

We first loaded up and headed to the neighborhood party.



We definitely got some stares on our way over!


This was their first experience with livestock and they were not afraid one bit. Although, I was terrified of the chickens they kept wanting to pet.

While we were there one guy that he thought they were actual "little people" working for the petting zoo company...what??!

After that, we played in the yard and waited for it to get dark so that we could head out to Trick-or-Treat.


We actually let them WALK with us on the sidewalks which is pretty much a first for them as well. They were so good about holding hands. But because we were walking I have no pictures.

We went to about 4 houses on our street and in the nearby cul de sac. But Kyle and I had so much fun watching our little gnomes and talking with neighbors! I'm sure next year will be even better :)
