Our little ladybug






A friend loaned me this great little outfit for Maddie's Halloween costume...too cute! Madelyn still has no idea what candy is, so we kept a relatively low profile today. We visited our friends Anne and Pete and Leah so that Madelyn could have a reason to dress up, wore it around the house a few times, and called it good.

Madelyn did a great job decorating our pumpkin with marker over the past week. She was excited to see it carved and lit up tonight! We went out several times to check on it.

As for trick-or-treaters, we had FAR more visitors when we lived in Kelly! Mike had one neighbor kid come to the door with no costume on and ask for candy!? I'm proud to say Mike read him the riot act, but did cave a little and gave him some of our shwaggiest candy:)

you guys were wiser than us. we tried the trick or treating idea for about 30 minutes until we realized it was a ridiculous idea. we didn't want her to eat any candy..but you know who wanted a little stash. Thankfully a neighbor gave her a big apple to keep her occupied. bad idea to take a kid trick or treating that you don't want to eat candy. she figured out the candy thing pretty quickly and loved the fact that people were just giving it to her left and right. All said and done she experienced a gummy hot dog and loved every second of it. Yuck!
