Happy Candy-Gathering...uh, I mean Halloween!

Halloween has been thoroughly celebrated at the Coe house.
Kenzie & Abbie went to plenty of parties & dances.



Guess how last-minute this costume was . . .?

Porter, who is a FINE salesman, did some extra trick-or-treating with one of our favorite neighbors to collect candy to be donated to the military (a $2000 prize has been offered by a dental group to the school who's students donate the most candy!)

Porter said most people gave him one piece, until he gave them his spiel about where the candy was going, and then many gave him extra handfuls (some even dumped the rest of their bowl into his bag.) He & Kailee came home with 15 lbs EACH, so they will be dropping off 30 lbs of candy tomorrow . . . hope the soldiers don't get a tummy ache!

Here's Porter with some of his cache!

Way to go Porter! So I guess the Great Pumpkin isn't coming to your house this year after all. Love the costumes, and it looks like Porter worked all season long on his costume, not just last minute!
