day 1

Okay, so it's day 1 of the posting every day of November attempt....we'll see how successful I am!

Here are halloween pictures from last night's trick or treating adventure. I had a bunny costume for her, but I bought it last fall at a garage sale and thought she would grow more than she has (we all know how little she's grown....) so it was gigantic on her. My mom and I bought this costume last year after Halloween on clearance, so she was a pumpkin again, even though I didn't want her to be a pumpkin two years in a row. Oh well. She could've cared less!


She had a great time running up and down the sidewalk of our cul de sac. I did a lot of chasing while Daddy stayed and passed out candy at our house. We didn't leave our street, but she had a ball. She kept going back to one house on the end of the street that had dry ice blowing steam around their yard. The lady there kept giving her more bags of Gerber puffs (she had those for the little kids). She kept carrying them around and didn't want to put them in her bucket. Every once in awhile she'd plop herself down and play with her loot in the middle of the sidewalk. She'd then run back home to see Daddy, play a little more with what was in her bucket (she'd take it all out and then put it back in), and then want to take off again down the sidewalk. She enjoyed seeing the other trick or treaters, too.

  1. i,
    I'm a friend of Emilys. I read your blog now & again. I read on yours recently that you have a good bedtime routine that works. My blog posting tonight is asking for help on that subject so any tips you have would be appreciated.
    Thanks & happy blogging!

    Rachel is SO cute in her pumpkin costume! I'm glad she had a good time. My boys' love of candy finally trumped their shyness, and they went for the first time this year. We didn't go to a lot of houses, but they had fun and got a ton of candy!
