happy halloween!

it's been a while since halloween has landed on a saturday.  so in addition to the usual games, we had to keep up our energy for an evening of trick or treating.

little sister's soccer game was cancelled due to rain, so we took the opportunity to go get their flu shots.  their doctor had run out of shots when we visited back in september.

then we picked up a few supplies to make festive cupcakes for little sister's volleyball team.

next, it was time for little sister to go play volleyball, and for big sister to go to her cheer game - the last of the season!  even though it was no longer raining, it was a gloomy fall day.  only 7 of the 13 girls came to the game - i guess many parents took the whole day as a holiday? - and the girls that did come were goofing constantly.  here, big sister is giving rides on her broom.....

then we got a few hours rest before hitting the streets.  there were more people home giving out candy than we thought there would be on a saturday night.  the girls ran around with a neighbor friend, so they were happy as could be.  happy halloween!!
