Our first Halloween


We decided to take E out trick-or-treating this year. Since we live on base, we stayed in our neighborhood which was perfect. Lots of people came on base and it was crowded. I felt good about the police walking around the neighborhood. We even got to see a fire engine and meet the firemen! That was a big hit. Most of our neighbors were out visiting and giving out candy. We were given a ladybug costume about a year and a half ago and I've been saving it ever since, it was sooooo cute! E loved her "dots" (freckles) and Mama had a blast dressing her up the night before for the toddler's Halloween party at the base library. She loved seeing all the other kids in their costumes. It was a fun night we got to spend together! One bummer: someone stole a pumpkin off our front porch on Halloween night. WHO would do that???? I was pretty upset. Oh well, the other one is now pumpkin pie in the freezer, and we had plenty. 

The fire engine was a favorite. E loves them!
Cruising the neighborhood before it got dark
In our front yard waiting for 6 o'clock to come
What an adorable "aadybug"
The next day she wanted "more dots Mommy"
