Halloween

Olivia could not be talked out of being Strawberry Shortcake for Halloween.  If I knew how to sew, I think you could make a really cute Strawberry Shortcake costume.  I even took her to Bering's and showed her the ridiculously expensive costumes trying to persuade her to be something else.  Unfortunately, we were stuck with the cheesy, plastic looking costume that the local Halloween store carried.  Whatever makes her happy :)

 Thankfully, the wig bothered her and was discarded quickly. 

 We started Halloween early with all of the kids that live on our tiny street.  

 Eliza's first trick-or-treating experience.  This neighbor gave each child a giant gift bag full of movie theater sized candy!!

 Our Lady Bug ( I always call her "buggie" and she is my little love bug)

 She got it right away and her second house, knew just what to do!

 Our sweet neighbor, Emily, whom my girls both love.  Anytime Eliza sees her, she runs right up to her for her to hold her.

 Our next stop was the fantastic block party in the Fuller's neighborhood.  This house had amazing decorations.

 Olivia and Ella, the monarch butterfly

 The last stop at the block party was incredible.  They had snacks, a movie, games and more

Ducky braved the chaos and came over to meet us to see the girls in their costumes
