Halloween 11-01-07

Halloween night started off with a bang. As I was cooking dinner, holding Bear and talking on the phone to a friend, Sweet Pea got quiet all of a sudden. So, I started to look around for her and when I found her, this is what I saw:



In the next couple of hours we tried on a hundred different pairs of shoes, screamed and got sent to time out, and even "gently placed" a big sitting toy on our brother (it covered his body with the top of it jammed in his mouth). We were off to a good start!
After dinner, we got dressed and handed out candy to the trick or treaters. Sweet Pea had fun putting candy in all of the kids' bags:


Once we were dressed, we left to go trick or treating. Here are the kids as we trick or treated:


Once we started, Sweet Pea was so excited and had so much fun. She was skipping, singing and telling Nana how much she loved her. She loved to see all of the people and their dogs of course. I wasn't too excited about Trick or Treating this year. I didn't really like the idea of her asking for candy. But, I don't think she really cared about getting candy (she hasn't asked about it once), she just loved being with family and playing dress up and seeing all of the people. She would stop every once in a while and give some of her candy to J and Nana. All in all it was great night. Both kids were exhausted when we got home! In the spirit of Halloween, I have to post one "freaky" picture. Here's the Bear cub and his daddy. They are making the exact same face, but in different directions. Don't they look just alike?

Here are some more pictures from the night:


And from the other night at the Pumpkin Patch:
