hippies in the south: happyween....

I think one of my favorite things ever is hearing how Linc will interpret what we say. For instance, it's not "Happy Halloween", it's "happyween". So adorable! So for our happyween adventure this year we went trick or treating in Graham's old stomping grounds (Grammy and Grampy's neighborhood in Peachtree Corners). We had so much fun! And surprisingly the boys really got the hang of it. Lincoln was walking last year, but obviously not quite as talkative so it was so fun to hear how he was taking all this in. Some of my favorite Linc quotes from happyween:

1. We had been to a few houses and he was really starting to get the hang of this when we walked up to a house and I said "ok, say trick or treat". Lincoln looks the gentlemen right in the eyes and says, "Just treats, more treats." He hadn't gotten any tricks yet, but he wasn't taking any chances!

2. Before we had been to many houses and his bucket wasn't very full I said, "Come on we need to fill that pail up with treats!" To which Lincoln stuffs his puppy in his pail and says, "Oh, puppy treat! :)" I swear he's going to get married with puppy as his best man....

3. And lastly, as we were headed back to Grammy's house we told Lincoln he had done a great job and we were all done trick or treating. He just keeps walking and as he waves he says, "Bye, bye happyween! Bye, bye happyween!"

So of course those weren't the ONLY cute things he said, but those were some of my favorite. Quinn was cute too and had a knack for wanting to go straight into people's houses. Very Quinn of him. Never met a stranger that child! He also wanted to pull all the candy out of the homeowner's buckets and attempt to put it all back in! But by the end he understood that you only take one and you put it in your own bucket...he got his Halloween 101 lesson down by the end of the night. :)

So I hope all of you had a wonderful happyween as well. Here are some pictures of our night!
