takes them out of my bucket!




Halloween was a fun time as usual this year. We went to Boo at the Zoo with Julie, Steve, and the baby to trick or treat and had a lot of fun. Ladybug's Halloween fairy costume wasn't completed yet, so she dressed as a cute little witch for the zoo.

Lauren's costume this year was made by a co-worker from school. She was a Halloween fairy and was an absolute doll! I just couldn't get over the cute, plastic spiders glued all over the tutu and wings. She was able to wear it to her dance classes during the week of Halloween and was a hit with all of the Moms in the lobby of the dance school. I wonder if I was able to round up some business for Jessica's tutus? A few days later, I did my own photo shoot with her in the Halloween fairy costume. I was afraid to do it after Halloween in case she fell, riped the tutu, or something like that.

On Halloween, we celebrated with the Matthews and trick or treated in their neighborhood. Let me tell you that the street goes all out with decorations and costumed ghouls. I loved it. Lauren was a bit frightened of some tall goblins (guys walking on stilts), so we skipped that house needless to say! She had so much fun with David, Lydia, and Ian. I'm not sure who enjoyed themselves more, the adults or the kids!
