Trick or Treat!

Well, we survived another Halloween! We started our evening out by visiting family and then we went to trunk or treat at our church (they had a bunch of activities for the kids-horseback riding, games, hot dogs, car show, and of course lots of candy!!). Next we went to "Mama Nell's" which has been a Halloween tradition since I was a small child. Mama Nell was a precious lady who would open her home to the community on Halloween. Every year she would dress up as a witch and serve "witches brew" and popcorn. We always looked forward to going to her house as a child. Mama Nell passed away a little over a year ago, but her family is carrying on the tradition. Her granddaughter Anna is now the "official" witch of Greenpond. Here are a few pics from our evening. Enjoy...

Jackson fell in love with this costume at Target. He actually originally wanted to be a mailman. (I don't know where he comes up with some of his ideas:)

Poor horse... I'm sure he has an awful crick in his neck this morning!

I just love this angle! (In case you don't get it, those are the horses hooves on the ground and the "cowboys" legs hanging from the horse.) aka cowboy riding a horse.

He looks like a natural up on that horse!

I'm a COWBOY!!

Nanny and all of her great-grands!

Trick or treating is hard work, but someome's got to do it!
