trick or treating: part 2 (the finale)

We had a busy Halloween morning and afternoon, so after a quick rest, we got the boys in their costumes and headed out. Our first stop was to see our friends, Carson and Erica. Carson (the conductor) was waiting for us at the door. I absolutely LOVE this kid, maybe because I am his favorite "Aunt Mer". 
Carson gave the boys their candy, and he gave me some peanut M&M's (like I said, I'm his favorite). Erica informed us that her block was a good trick or treating place, so we started there. 
The first couple houses, Elliott wasn't quite sure what was going on.  
It didn't take him long to figure it out though. 
And as you can see here, after only 4 (or so) houses, he was pointing out the next house with the light on to us. He even started pushing Ethan out of the way when the doors would open, and before he was down the stairs, he would be pointing to the next house. (Thank you Erica for the trick or treat bag for Elliott, it worked great)
There were a lot of comments about the 3 heads again, but it worked to Ethan's advantage, and most people gave him a piece of candy for each head. SCORE!
Elliott made the cutest little biker ever.  :)
Because we didn't think that a whole box of candy was enough sugar for one night, Jason and I took the boys to our new favorite treat stop, Billings Best Yogurt. It wasn't busy at all, so we got to hang out, enjoy our ice cream, and enjoy our Halloween together. Dang I love these guys!
