Halloweekend Part III: Trunk-or-Treat

Trunk-or-treating is an annual tradition at most LDS churches. Yesterday was our first time. Jamin and his cousin/best buddy Brock always trick-or-treat together, so Charly and I planned a joint evening for the kids.

First, we went to their stake center. We arrived a few minutes late, and the local kids were chomping at the bit while we attempted to set up. Charly handed out candy while I took Brock, Jamin, Travis, and Libby around the parking lot.
After one time around, the kids helped pass out the rest of the candy:
At this point, Charly joined us as we walked around the outer loop of the lot. The kids got a lot of loot! 

They were having such a great time that we decided to refill the candy bowl and go to our church building next. By this point, the sun had set, and the parking lot was packed

It was hectic, to say the least. But it was a gorgeous evening, and the kids had a blast. 
Next year, we may just stick to trick-or-treating.
