Halloween


You may remember that last Halloween I dressed up as a pirate. Well this year I went as something far more formidable - a ferocious elephant. This costume choice was in large part due to my uncanny impersonation that I have been perfecting over the last 4 months - see evidence here:



On Sunday, the day before Halloween, there was a kid's parade in our neighborhood by the ponds where I go to feed the ducks. There were lots of other kids there, and we were all sizing up each other's costumes and eating treats.




On Halloween day Mama, Dada and I met our next door neighbor Cullen and her parents to go trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. She was a pumpkin and together we made a scary pair! Mama went a bit overboard with her ghoul costume - she was worried I'd be scared but I thought it was hilarious. We stopped at a few houses and knocked and when the people opened their doors they handed Cullen and I candy - how crazy is that?! Dada didn't like the candy I chose though - I liked the brightly colored ones - he told me I needed to get more Reese's peanut butter cups. Whatever, Dad.




Then we went home so I could have dinner, but we kept getting interrupted by kids in costumes asking US for candy. We had a big pail of candy to give them, so that was okay.
