Happy Halloween!

I have been talking to Lucy about Halloween for a couple of months now.  I bought her a couple of books with Halloween things and she has learned so many new words... ghost, pumpkin, cupcakes, doughnuts, spiders, witch, worms, candle, owl, bones, pizza (random but it was in her book), bat, pirate, treasure, cookie, frog, apple, monster, tiger, bird, and treats were the main ones although she already knew some of the words already.  Of course she had no idea what Halloween was all about but she quickly learned when we took her trick-or-treating on Halloween night.  This picture was taken at the University mall where all of the stores were handing out candy.  At first we had to help her and show her what to do and after a few stores she caught on and was running from store to store with all of the other millions of kids that were there.  It was really fun!  What a great idea.I love this shirt!  It glows in the dark.  I wore it to work one night and the kids loved it.  I'm wearing it every year from now on.  I hate dressing up so it's perfect.
Trick-or-treating at the Clarks (my parents), we also went to see Dave's parents.  His mom was home alone so she was excited to see Lucy then we went over to see his dad, he was working on painting their new condo.  She would get excited every time we would put her butterfly costume back on thinking she was going trick-or-treating again.

She was so happy all night but of course I couldn't get one picture of her smiling at the camera.
It was a good Halloween and it's going to get better every year!  What will she be next year? Also Luly, thanks for working so hard collecting all of that candy for me.  All of you parents know you do the same thing, you pick out the candy you like and give the rest to your kids that worked so hard running from door to door for 1 little piece of candy.  I love it!
