So around here, the neighborhoods are hilly and the houses are sort of spread apart.. Not typically ideal for trying to trick or treat with a toddler. And, we were told by some locals that not many people trick or treat around here because there are so many different churches that throw "trunk or treat's" which seem to be much safer. I thought it was funny how we live in such a different place these days but glad that the pressure was off to take the little one trick or treating (probably wouldn't have anyways, let's be honest, lol). So we planned to go to our ward's chili cook off/trunk or treat activity and it was perfect! There was actually a pretty big turnout, too, which made it that much more awesome. Ivy did really well with the whole idea of saying trick or treat and getting candy! After showing her how to do it, I'd walk her up to every single car and she'd go up to the person and say some sort of variation of "chka chh" (trick or treat, hehe) and bring her piece back to me to put in her pumpkin. She thought it was so fun. Occasionally she would want to hang on to that piece of candy, once she realized what it was but she was pretty good about waiting til the end.. It was so fun to see how grown up she was and how capable she was of doing it all herself.. It was the perfect Halloween for us!
