Halloween Trick and Treating

Yesterday, Tatiana was asleep when I got home.  Scotland and I loaded the car, because we were going to Kellan's house so the kids could Trick or Treat together.  We loaded the costume in the car and changed her at their house.  I went in to wake her and she still didn't want to wake up.  It is so cute to see her sleeping.  I don't get to see that often since normally wakes up as soon as I enter.  I picked her up and put her in her car seat a little asleep. 
When we got there Kellan was already in his fireman's costume except for his boots.  He looked adorable.  I got Tatiana dressed and then we waited until other Trick or Treaters were out.  Scotland, Amber and I took the kids out and Erik handed out candy.  It was really wonderful.  They both talked very quietly, Tatiana in particular.  I got video.   There were several gatherings  of neighbors in one driveway.  It seemed like a neat idea.  They set the chairs up in a horseshoe shape and they had a table for potluck food and every family brought a candy bowl.  The kids could go around the horseshoe saying "Trick or Treat" whenever they saw a bowl.  The adults could socialize when there weren't kids and exclaim to each other over the cute costumes.  There were several of these grouping. 
There was one person that scared Tatiana.  He wore a scary mask and he made a growly sound when Tatiana was reaching for candy as he had invited her to do. 

After we got back to the house, they took off their costumes and played.  The kids went in his play room.  They played very nicely together.  One thing funny, Tatiana came running out yelling for "Kellan's Daddy   Kellan's Daddy  Kellan's Daddy"  Us adults thought that was pretty funny. 

Then it was bath time and they invited Tatiana to stay for a bath.  Oh, my, they were so cute!  I knew they would be cute, but they were even cuter.  I didn't get any photos for obvious reasons.  Sometimes he would cry because she was playing with a car he wanted to play with.  Tatiana handed it to him, and got another toy.  At point she was splashing him and he said "Stop".  I had to coach Tatiana but she stopped.  Then later he said Stop to something else, she stopped on her own.  After bath time the men had belly time with the kids.  What I saw was the kids running up to the Daddy while on the bed.  And the Daddies would pick them up and toss them onto their backs on the bed.  The kids thought it was great.  I think that is a standard thing for Erik and Kellan.  Tatiana would sometimes not even wait for Scotland to toss her she would sort of bounce off of him and land on her back. 

They were both crying when it came time to leave,  I think mostly because they knew it was bedtime.  It was past time for both of them.  On the way home she said, "I miss Kellan"
