The Schutz Family: Trunk or Treat

Christ Lutheran, where Aimee works and Corey is principle and all the kids go, hosted a Trunk or Treat. Last year they had 13 trunks but this year they had 50 trunks. Micah was so excited to go and kept saying, "Micah ready a go!" When it was finally time she fell asleep in the car on the way clutching a card Grandma and Grandpa Schutz had sent her. She and Taryn slept while we put our trunk together and we had to finally wake her up to get her ready.

One of the mom's let us borrow a Hershey's Kiss she made. After being woken up Micah was not excited about putting it on.

This was our trunk. We borrowed as many stuffed animals as we could find from the Brandenburgers because ours are in storage. We arranged all the stuffed animals and gave a couple instruments. The sign says, "All God's critter's got a place in the choir!" and we had Sunday School music playing the whole time. Taryn had a spot to sit in the van but the sun was beating down right in her eyes so it didn't last long. We got a great response but a couple of kids thought they could pick a stuffed animal!

Micah warmed up to the costume and once she figured out that you walked up to people and they gave you candy she was all about it. By the end of the day she did not want to take the costume off.

Taryn's costume was a onesie that said, "This is my costume." Burnt orange is the only color they had so she looked like a boy. People would say, "What a cute little boy!" If we didn't know them we wouldn't fight it.

The Brandenburgers were the gang from Scooby Doo. Corey was Shaggy and Aimee could not look at him without laughing! Micah did not even recognize him. Melissa was Velma and looked really good!
