Halloween, Halloween.... Trick or Treat!

Yesterday was Halloween and boy are we all exhausted.  The festivities began on Friday afternoon at school.  Both kids got to dress up in their costumes and be part of the school parade (it's the last year for Juliana).  Then they both then had classroom parties at the same time, so I was running between classes trying not to miss a minute of either one.  We then played on the playground with some friends and then Juliana went to soccer practice.  As soon as she got back it was back into the costumes and we headed off to the school harvest party.  There were activities, music, dancing, contests, and goodies.  We went to bed late and then got up on Halloween morning and headed to Tyler's 9:30 soccer game and then to Juliana's 12:30 game.  After a little rest at home it was time to put the costumes back on and headed to our friends neighborhood to do trick or treating with a group of friends.   When it began to sprinkle on us we walked back to our friends house and had some snacks and hot chocolate.  It was soon getting late so we left and did trick or treating in our own neighborhood.  When all was said and done the kids went through their candy bags, made some trades with each other, and were tucked into their beds with visions of sugar and chocolate dancing in their heads.
Juliana was  a professional soccer player and Tyler was the color blue:
