About the only thing that remained the same was the costume. Spud has not clued in that you can be something different every year for Halloween and I plan to ride that pony till the tail falls off. He was quite happy to be the exact same pirate that he was last year. Only this time, he actually kept the costume on.
After doing a string of houses Sprout was beginning to get pretty tired so my dad took him back home and asked Spud if he wanted to do a few more houses.
"No Poppa, I want to do a lot more houses." He has finally realized the whole point of trick or treating is to get candy. He all but slept with his treat bag Saturday night. If he has to be a pirate to get a food it is now a sacrifice he is willing to make.

Too cute!! Gabe would go all night, too, for the candy, but Emma tuckers out quick. It's not worth it for her!!
My 5-year old finally clicked with the whole candy extravaganza and kept going until dad's legs couldn't take it any more. They got home after I'd already turned off our own porch light. :)
Good thing Poppa is such a trooper... I love the sleeping with candy thing. We could make ours last until almost Christmas... it rocked!
My husband has started calling our daughters "the pirates who won't eat anything." It fits.
I keep trying to subscribe to your blog in Google reader, but every time I try, it subscribes to Mommyknows.com instead. Has this happened to anyone else?
LOL! I loved that story! Sigh.....I ate way too much candy. And we don't even DO Halloween. How bad is that?
