Trick or Treat Training

Candy is still not a word in the boy’s vocabulary, so Trick or Treating has a different meaning – to dress in costumes and visit folks. Halloween fell on a Sunday this year, and Owensboro promoted Saturday evening Trick or Treating. We took a short afternoon nap, dressed and then made our first stop at the hospital where Great Uncle Gene Ray Edds was recovering from surgery. We then drove over to visit Al Bell’s parents. Sandy slipped Mrs. Bell a couple of GeoTrax train cars to put in the boys’ bags. They responded enthusiastically by driving their choo choos along the Bell’s landscaping wall. We then visited a few of the neighbors, who enjoyed seeing the twins in their Thomas costumes and shared train stories from their childhoods. Finally, we drove over to Pa and Granny’s house where our baskets were filled with crayons, coloring books and big delicious apples.
