Halloween

I wasn't much for Halloween after about the age of 12, but it is absolutely reborn when you see it through the eyes of your children.

We had a kitty cat and Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz make an appearance this Halloween. Delaney is pictured with her friend Trinidy who was also Dorothy. We had some friends over to trick or treat and although Phil pulled a wagon in which Delaney rode the whole way, Kennedy walked all night and in between falling and getting loads of candy, was a complete trooper all night.

She would run and sometimes follow other groups of people until someone retreived her, then she would just keep running! She quickly figured out what happened at each door. With daddy's assistance, Kennedy would walk up the steps of each house, get her candy, reach for daddy's finger to help her down from the porch, then take off running. In complete contrast, Delaney rode in the wagon. Once they got to a driveway, she would step out, walk to the door to get her candy, then step back into her "limo" to be driven to the next house. She was eating her stash while getting her ride. Momma didn't raise no fool:)

After making the neighborhood loop, it was back to our house for appetizers and dessert. It was a fun night with great friends!
