“Happy Meow-o-ween”!

Gurly and I certainly enjoyed ourselves this Halloween. These are pictures of her trying out her costume the night before. The mouse eating thing was her idea. Hehe.

We wasted no time getting into costume Halloween morning. She was in costume before I even woke up and she had me in the bathroom coloring my hair no long after. After coloring class w/ Lionel and Kelly and a trip outside we ventured out to strut our stuff on the town. We made a stop at Mommy’s, the Library, Dairy Queen (hello free ice cream), and the inevitable Wal-Mart. When we got home she took a rare, but mandatory nap and then it was off to see Mommy again, but this time at work where we enjoyed some yummy MarketPlace food before we got loaded on sugar. : d It was nice…and soon dark…and we were on our way. We meet up w/ Christian and his daddy and circled a couple blocks. MaryJane boogie-woogied about while C calmly rode on his daddy while enjoying suckers. Sis made an attempt to teach C how to say “Trick-or-Treat” at one point, but he just responded in hesterical laughter. It was quite cute and humorous. After an hour they bailed and Sis and I picked up the pace, ko’ing a bunch of house in the last 30 minutes. She made a good haul and had lots of fun. Her fav house was the one where a girl gave her a “Now-n-Later” telling her it is “Princess Power”. She will likely never eat this piece of candy. : ) My fav house…the one where the gurl said “You’re lucky…we were getting ready to close” and then put a handful of candy in each of our baskets. Oh yeah. She gobbled down candy all the way home and when we got there we headed for the bed. We dumped our buckets, sorted the candy into groups, and made trades…all while munching on candy of course. Despite the sugar rush she passed out w/ ease…and a couple of shampoos later I was right there w/ her.
