trick or treat.

mom and pop took mercer to see sydney and her parents, christine and kyle, for halloween. it was a beautiful afternoon for trick or treating and the kids were in great spirit. mercer even planted a big kiss on sydney's lips to start off the evening!

as you know, mercer was a vampire. sydney was a penn state cheerleader. the kids did some rough housing before we set out.






the parents didn't think the toddlers would last all that long, but mercer and sydney picked up on the whole trick or treating idea really quickly. they loved knocking on doors and grabbing as much candy as they could. we tried pushing the m and m's for mercer since we know he really loves those. he eats them one at a time! so frustrating! it was cute to watch them try and stuff as much loot into their sacks as fast as possible!



at the end of the day, the kids did a great job. in fact, i think the grown-ups were more tired than mercer and sydney. we headed back to christine and kyle's fantastic house and relaxed with some pizza and treats. until next year...
