This year we took Aidan trick or treating for the first time. He was a star belly Sneech from the Dr. Seuss books--it's one of his favorite stories! The costume was homemade ;) The Friday before Halloween we went Trick or Treating on Main Street in Nevada, and it was a semi-disaster. It started at 5:00, so we didn't feed him dinner before we went--bad idea. He was pretty crabby, and we even had to stop at Subway to feed him dinner in the middle of it.
Trick or treating night went better. Grandma and grandpa Schimmel brought Aidan a bag of treats, then we went out in the neighborhood. It wasn't bitterly cold, but it was still pretty chilly. Aidan kept taking his mittens off, so we didn't last long. We went down our street and around one block and then headed home. It wasn't long, but Aidan enjoyed it! He really got the hang of grabbing candy and putting it in his bucket :)
