Trick or Treat

What a night! Asher went trick or treating for the first time and Orli trailed behind in the stroller. We weren't sure how Asher was going to react, but after the first house he was a real pro. He didn't want to be carried at all and would have gone forever, if we let him.  On our way home, he stopped to smell his bag of candy and said, "Halloween candy smells good." When we got home, we dumped his candy out and we let him eat a few pieces.  He asked us how to eat the Milk Duds. I am sure he will never have to ask how to eat candy in the years ahead.

Last week, we  participated in some memorable Halloween events. Jed's firm hosted a Halloween event at Franklin Square. We rode the merry go round and made trick or treat bags. We also left with a few treats.  We also went to the Please Touch museum.  They closed down the museum and made it into a Halloween celebration. Asher went trick or treating, ate treats, and played. Orli came along for the ride, but we think she would have been happier in her crib sleeping.  Finally, we were invited to a Birthday party at a pumpkin patch. We rode a tractor, pet some animals and picked a pumpkin. What a way to celebrate this wonderful holiday.
