Halloween News:

A few days late but still some fun to be told...

We have had some of our best friends here with us, Carly, Nate and cute Farrah; the past couple of days have been so fun with them. We were able to have them here for Halloween, and it certainly was and has been a treat.

The day of Halloween we went to Spencer's facility, see older post, took a much needed nap... then got ready for the big trick or treat event!
Spencer was able to get our names onto the much wanted list of the famous Black Hawk community, to go trick-or-treating. It was amazing. Although this year they didn't have their famous haunted house and such - it still had us in "la la land". Black Hawk Gated community is this weeealthy neighborhood set against this famous golf course. The homes start around 2 million, or so. They are amazing. So anyway - we drive up around 5:30, thank goodness... and set off for the night. Hudson thought he had died and gone to heaven. Forget the Target aisle of Halloween scares; every house was a Target store. All homes were decked out, and all home owners had their tables set up with mounds of Candy waiting to be given. A good half of the home owners were dressed to the hilt, and made the environment even more fun. Best part, they handed out king size candy bars at every home, and if it wasn't king size it was "good" candy given. There was this one beautiful home that gave out 1 lb. m&m bags; only question asked was "peanut or plain". We ventured off to another home were they, adults, were a little tip-see asking us what "treat" we wanted... "RED OR WHITE" (wine). No joke, they were not about to take no for an answer until I gave them the "I am pregnant" answer. That sufficed them. So funny.
Hudson doesn't really talk much, and so his "trick or treat" was something of a sound then the opening of his bag wide, did I say wide! He also knew which ones he liked. He had us laughing. He was not about to let us carry his bag, so he had to pull it (seriously) a lot of the way. By the end of the night Spencer and I were thinking about pulling it; it probably was a good 20lbs., and only 1/3 way full. Those darn king size candy bars.
Anyway it was a success. We then set off to leave we found the place covered with cars waiting to get in; I was so happy we came early! So we left and hurried over to In-n-Out, which tasted so yummy. Hudson was so hungry he sat on Spencer's lap and ate his whole meal - who would have guessed that one! What a night!
Hope everyone had a blast. We did.
