I posted the winners from the Do it for Don RAK in the post below this one!!!

The rest of our Halloween looked something like this...
We go to this house every single year and no one ever answers the door (last year they answered and said they didn't celebrate Halloween).
But we spotted a pumpkin outside their front door, so we figured we'd give it (yet) another try.
And not only did they answer the door (with candy), but they were both dressed up.
And they agreed to having their photo taken with us (victory)!
So thankful for a nine year old in the house (which means I've still got a few more years of trick-or-treating in my future).
And I will be reading and loving your posts....So happy that even if the "bigs" didn't dress up...they went along and made it a night to remember. Always love your photos. Happy November...so grateful for you!

Love your photos always. But especially the big kids just being themselves. Real. Life.
