Happy Halloween

We had a lot of fun on Halloween. The Friday before, I took Emily to a little Halloween party at the place where she and I had done a class this summer. She enjoyed seeing the other kids and did a craft and was part of the costume parade. I don't think she really got most of what we were doing, but she enjoyed it, at least!

On Halloween Day, we got home around 4 from school and got Emily all ready for Halloween. She had been carrying her plastic pumpkin around the house for several days so she was used to that. When we took her to the first house, she wasn't quite sure what to do. We showed her how to pick the candy and drop it in her pumpkin. By the time we got to the next house, she was an old pro at picking up some candy and dropping it in. She got some animal crackers at one house (what a great idea when you have toddlers coming by!) and tried to chew on the bag the rest of the time that we were out. We only took her to 5 or 6 houses, but that in itself took awhile!

I tried to give Emily a lollypop on Thursday after we got home, but she wasn't so sure about it. How funny. I guess she'll figure out that she likes those before too long.

We also took some video, I'll work on getting that uploaded and online before too long.
