Beggar's Night
Here in Iowa we go trick-or-treating on the 30th instead of the 31st, and it's called Beggar's Night. It was about 70 degrees today--perfect for trick-or-treating. I took Isaac to my friend's neighborhood while Ryan stayed home and kept Maddie company. Here are a few pictures from tonight as well as the Halloween party at Ryan's school yesterday.
Isaac liked his monkey costume for about 2 minutes, and then he'd had enough. Here's my little monkey (who had climbed on top of the kitchen table) attempting to take the costume off.
Trick-or-treating with the other kids. He was a little bit skeptical of the whole idea for the first few houses, but it didn't take him long to get the gist of the whole "begging for candy" thing. By the end of the night I had to stop him from taking handfuls of candy instead of just one.
The idea behind Ryan staying home with Maddie was so that he could get a little studying done...didn't happen. Check out this link to see my favorite mother/daughter costume. Isn't my niece adorable?

Isaac looks adorable in the monkey costume. No worries about the banana. We had the same problem last year. It washes nicely. I love the picture of Maddie eating it. See you tonight at the trunk-or-treat.
I love that Isaac is trying to eat his banana, and Maddie looks so precious! Great costumes!!
So why do they do the begger's night thing instead of trick or treating? I've never heard of that.
