We had such a fun Halloween this year. It was a beautiful evening, about 65 degrees and clear outside, as we walked around trick-or-treating. Lauren dressed up as Tinkerbell (costume compliments of Grandma Miriam) and was the cutest little fairy you’ve ever seen. She collected a whole bucket full of candy and every little girl she passed commented on how cool her outfit was, complete with blinking lights on the wings.
I walked most of the way with Ryan and Lauren, meeting new neighbors as we went and “protecting” Lauren when we passed a scary costume or decoration. Then I realized that if I didn’t head back to the house to hand out candy, we were going to be stuck with a huge bowlful of leftovers! So, I jogged back up the hill and answered the door for a while. When Ryan and Lauren got home, she didn’t want to look at the candy she had received or eat any of it – she wanted to answer the door and hand out candy to the other kids. I think she had more fun doing that than she did trick-or-treating!
It was a very fun evening of making memories – here are some pictures of Lauren in her costume and our pumpkin carving skills. :)
