trick or treat 2010

The only way I got Halle's costume on her Halloween night was to show her over skype that baby Jake was wearing a costume.
After she saw him she was okay with putting her dress on. So we bundled her up for another cruel and cold Utah Halloween.
We caught a break in the rain and took her out to trick or treat with her buddy Wade the airplane.
Although it was freezing she loved trick or treating. She said it in the cutest high pitch voice and ran from house to house, sometimes digging her hand in the candy bowls without saying anything. What can I say? We taught her well. We said goodbye to Wade and the Barton's just as the rain started again and warmed ourselves up in the house. Halle grabbed a bag of mimmy's (m&m's) from her candy bucket and we watched Scooby Doo and the Witches Ghost for the rest of the night. Halle has loved this holiday. The whole month she has been so excited to see witches and skeletons and scary things in the grocery store. The school halloween carnival's spook alley was talked about for days. She has loved seeing everyone's scary decorations outside their houses and all the pumpkins. She loved all the costumes and seeing little kids dressed up. But, I think her favorite part has been realizing she can say trick-or-treat and she will get candy. What's not to love about that?

That little picture of her and her airplane friend holding hands is just the cutest. :) It looks like you had perfect spooky weather! I'm glad it let up for a bit to get some free candy!
