We were "Booed"! That means some one in our neighborhood left some yummy goodies and a note on our porch. The note tells us that now we need to do the same to 3 other people who haven't had it done yet. I have to come clean, in the past we've slacked and never booed back... I know we're lame/lazy. But this year the girls were so stoked about doing it so we gave it a go.
Good clean family fun. Right?
Wrong.
It was fun decorating the bags, picking out the goodies to go in, and deciding who to "BOO". But when we got to the house and Nathan was supposed to leave his bag at he flipped! Brooklyn took the bag and left it and ran back to the car, but Nathan just stood there in the driveway screaming/crying! He wouldn't move. I jumped out and ran and grabbed him, threw him in the car and we took off. He continued to cry for the other 2 houses, saying he wanted "his" candy bag back. The whole time he thought he was packing the bag for himself. We didn't realize he didn't grasp the concept. Needless to say, Mom and Dad had some explaining to do as to why we gave HIS candy away.

Poor Nathan! We all know he LOVES his candy!!
yeah, my kids didn't get the whole concept either. Luckily for us, nobody was home at any of the houses we dropped off goodies at. So we took our time, screaming and pouting our way back to the car!
That is so funny because Spencer did the same thing too. He didn't want to give away his cookies so I had to keep him locked in his seat while Kaleigh ran them up.
That story is awesome! I love that little boy of yours.
