We stayed right in our neighborhood for trick or treating this year. Probably went to a dozen homes or so of friends and neighbors who we adore and who adore Nevi. I had so much more fun than I thought I would. She got pretty good at saying Trick or Treat but even better at saying Happy Halloween! And she thanked everyone in sign language after they treated us. It was probably all very strange and new for her but she really did seem to like Halloween- the dressing up in costume, the social component, and she really loved seeing everyone else's costume's, too. The only part that she didn't get into was the candy. She tried chocolate again tonight but sure enough, she spit it right out and did her shiver thing she does when she doesn't like the taste of something. After a long night out on the town, we ended up using all of her candy on the trick or treaters who came to our door once we returned. We had left a caldron of candy ourselves on our front steps while we were away with a sign Robb made saying 'Help yourself to five pieces each!'. We just added our newly inherited candy to the mix and 'poof' it was all gone. I think Robb actually gave away some snacks from his personal stash this Halloween once we ran out...
