Halloween is becoming a bit more popular in England these days. We spent the day making halloween cookies and cupcakes and tonight for the first time I took the boys trick or treating with a gang of friends from school. We went out at about 4 (these are 4 and 5 year old kids...) and didn't have much luck at first...
Oz was very enthusiastic. When people did open their doors he tended to walk in - I had to keep grabbing him back!
He got quite a haul...
Toby of course travelled in style...
Oz liked the lollipops best - that's him with his friend Rosa the pink kitty!Toby was superboy - and he was quite super - Oz on the other hand experienced sugar meltdown and was very tearful for most of the evening!
I'll definitely go out again next year. By the time we got home (only about 7pm) I was ready with a huge bowl of candy for our visitors - and NO ONE has knocked on our door! So much for more popular! I saw lots of kids out as we were driving home but they must have already tried our door when we were out. Rob, needless to say, is overjoyed at the amount of sweeties he can now scoff while watching Little Britain (which I find so unfunny....).
Happy Halloween to all - BOO!

Did you have a pumpkin in the window or on the step? Round here, you only go to houses that are very clearly celebrating Hallowe'en, and that's one of the signals. I left out chocolate for when we went T or T-ing with a note saying that there was a baby with a blood-curdling scream in the house, and not to knock.
Photos are very cute!
