Happy Halloween! Aaaargh!

Aaaargh! I was a pirate for Halloween.

We got to have a party at my school. Before the moms and dads got there, we decorated paper bags and went trick-or-treating to the offices in the community center. Mommy showed up in time for the treats.


Here I am carefully examining a cracker before deciding whether or not to eat it. One mom brought in oranges that she had hollowed out, drew a face on it like a pumpkin, and then filled with fruit. I ate one strawberry out of it and was done. Mommy ended up finishing the fruit.

THIS was my favorite part--the cupcake!!!! You might notice that I have two juice boxes next to me. Anyone who knows me, knows I LOVE juice. Forget the crackers and cheese and fruit. Bring on the juice!

For the actual day of Halloween, by friends Katy and Amelia came over for dinner and to go trick-or-treating.

Getting ready to go out...can't forget my sword!

Am I fierce, or what?!

Does this costume look familiar? Charlotte wore the same costume Amelia and I did two years ago. She looks just as cute as we did.

It was tough to get all of us kids to look at the camera and smile at once.

Ryan, Amelia, Katy, me, Charlotte. Obviously Charlotte did not want to be in the picture.

Daddy took 15 pictures of us before we left (don't worry, I won't post them all), and they all pretty much looked like this.

Getting ready to go out.

The first house we hit were our neighbors Sandy and Susano.

I stayed out with Daddy for an hour and made a great haul.

And I didn't forget about Mommy while we were knocking on doors. Whenever someone let me choose a candy, I would grab a chocolate candy bar or a peanut butter cup for Mommy because she really likes those. Look at how many I got!

Can't wait till next year!

At least you got a shot of Charlotte I can use, thank you very much. All my pictures are kids looking elsewhere. Not that is matters since I still cannot find where my girls stashed my camera cord.
