Trunk or Treat

Our church holds an annual trunk or treat party where the kids get to dress up and get candy in a safe environment (if you consider car trunks decorated for Halloween and getting candy from disguised adults safe).

There’s a chili and cornbread cook-off and awards given for best costume in different age groups, as well as for the best decorated trunk.

In year’s past we have participated in the cook-off but didn’t have the time or energy to do so this year. And we haven’t taken the time to plan a scary trunk any year … just too much work for us busy folk I guess.

But we had fun sampling the different chili recipes and watching Eliana in her Snow White get-up with her brand new ruby red shoes. Dominic was pretty cute in his pea in a pod outfit as well. And it was fun having Grandma Codella there with us. Last year Grandma and Grandpa Snow were with us.



It’s a fun family tradition.
