Blog | Trick-or-Treat!
We had a lot of fun this year with Halloween. Both B and her best buddy chose Star Wars themes AND insisted that the whole family dress up! B chose to be Princess Leia, and she also decided M should be R2D2. As for J and me, she decided we should be Anakan and Amidala, respectively. Her buddy Hawke decided to be Darth Maul, and his parents were Obi Wan Kenobi and Amidala. Her buddy Charlie is crazy about Yoda, so he went as Yoda. We started the evening with Halloween dinner – mummy hot dogs and Halloween mac-n-cheese. Then after posing for a few pictures, they were off! M did great for about 20 houses, after which she was content to sit in the wagon and enjoy the ride. It was a fun time had by all!

We all had a great time and got lots of comments on our costumes! Afterwards, we went through the candy and donated 2 lbs of it to a local dentist office that was participating in a candy collection effort to send candy to soldiers over seas. Don’t worry – she still has PLENTY left. Win-win!
