OK, I know my pictures are Elizabeth heavy, but she was so darn cute! Can't believe God gave me this precious little girl. For the first time ever we went out as an entire family and were gone for more than an hour. We probably hit 30 houses. Elizabeth was so tired, but she wouldn't sit in the stroller or let us carry her. She just kept trucking along, dragging her candy bag behind her. She quickly picked up on the game of going up to the candy bucket and getting a piece out and putting it into her candy bucket. At one point, a toy spider jumped out at her and she jumped back, but never screamed. Just like me. I freeze. :)
Ben never whimpered once, he just sat in the stroller and took in all the action.
And Sam ran up ahead with his buddy and we had to keep up with him. He had a good time. Surprisingly we've never worked harder and I feel like he didn't actually come home with a lot of candy, but he was pleased with the amount, so that's all that matters. I hate the candy holidays because it's just one more battle to keep him from overloading on sugar, but he's older now and can handle more. I'm expecting Elizabeth won't even notice it's around.
So here are the pictures from this evening. Enjoy!

How absolutely PRECIOUS!!!! We just did a Skype call with the rest of the grandchildren, so I was really glad to see yours so soon. Sam was a little hard to look at--such a busy outfit. Ben and Elizabeth are, as always, sweet enough to eat with a spoon! Can't wait to get my hands on those chilluns!!
Love you all,
Mom/Grandma
Such precious children, such a precious family. I bet NOBODY had to be rocked to sleep last night. Love and Hugs to all. Mrs. A.
