Shayla Hoyland: Happy Halloween! Trick or Treat!

Another great year of ghouls, ghosts and goblins has pasted. Shayla had a great ghostly time and went to a couple events.

First we went to a costume parade at the Life Care Center. We met some friends there and got lots of candy. The kiddies would have gotten a lot more if we didn't stop them from going back to the same little old lady that came and sat in the lounge area where they got organized. She was offering candy to them over and over again, not realizing she had given them some already. Sad but comical when dealing with 2 year olds.

Who needs Barney when you can have your very own pink dinosaur escort. At first Shayla was unsure, but she warmed up & made friends fast. Thanks to Jodie who also organized this event.

My good friend Nicole had her hands full too:

Part way through the parade the kids got to stop in the kitchen area for some cookies and juice..Whats a little more sugar.

These are yummy!

The staff and seniors were great. A fun time was had by all. Our next event was the Mall Halloween trick or treat. I think that was the busiest I have ever seen this mall. It's still nothing like having 500+ kids come through the door at Pearle in Southcenter but Shayla had fun.

A precious little ghost


Trick or treat!

Before we left we took part in the costume contest. What fun to see all the different costumes of all ages.


Was funny to see all the kids look for the picture.

Even saw our pink dinosaur friend & family

So much fun. The best part of Halloween was the finale. We went trick or treating with our friends. We met Miranda & her mom at Miranda's grandma's place and the girls were wired silly.


What a cute pair!

Off to Trick or Treat!!

Back at the house the girls helped hand out candy & had just as much fun. The kids coming to the door definitely hit the jackpot getting double treats!We even got a little photo op.
