Strawberry for a Day!

Morgan's Halloween started off with her painting her pumpkin.

Sometimes I have a

hard time picking

which pictures to post

so I just post them all.

Her handiwork! The pumpkin on the left is the one she decorated during our trip to San Francisco last weekend.

Next, Morgan put her costume on and we visited Dad at work.

Morgan loves going to Petsmart because she gets to see lots of doggies, kitties, fish, birds, etc. Love the below silly smile. Her face looks more like a baby's face here.

Smelling the flowers...

Maggie couldn't resist Morgan in her get up! Maggie dressed up too.

Morgan did everything in her costume because she wore it most of the day.

She played in her costume.

The below pictures are

a little blurry but,

very cute!

She ate in her costume. (Everything seems so much cuter when you're dressed like a strawberry.)

And finally we took our self portrait.

A couple of trick-or-treaters came to our door before we could make it out ourselves. Morgan watched them and then after they left, I asked her if she was ready to trick-or-treat. She grabbed her candy holder, put it on her arm and said "yes" while heading towards the front door. I didn't even know she knew what that candy holder was for and I really didn't think she had a clue what trick-or-treating was. We walked up to our neighbor's house and she knew exactly what to do.

Last year she wasn't walking yet so we didn't really trick-or-treat but she must have caught on more than I thought because she definitely knew what she was doing. She was frightened in the below picture because there were some scary costumes walking towards us.

The first thing she did when we got back to our house was reach in her bag and grab a piece of candy for me to open for her.

Her loot...

Trick-or-treating must be exhausting!

When we got home we passed out candy. I also didn't know what to expect with this activity but she again did great. She just stood at the door and watched all the kids come and go. I know she had fun tonight but I really had a blast too. I haven't been out amongst trick-or-treaters since I was in high school. It was great getting to walk the neighborhood with tons of people out and about. Watching the kids in all their costumes was fun and people really are creative with their house decorations!
