Halloween

If you know me, you could probably guess that Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. Dressing up! Being a little spooky! Running around with friends! What's not to love about that? The girls and I were super excited for trick or treating!

It was kind of a chilly evening, so I went for a simple wig-only costume that I picked up at Target...

It was actually too big to fit in a bag, so I wore it home, much to the amusement of my fellow bus commuters.

When I got home, Hermione Granger and Batman were READY! TO! GO! I tried to get some pictures of their costumes, but everyone was very excited, which made it difficult to get a good, non-blurry pic.

Eventually I convinced them to sit down. Batman wasn't to thrilled about it... she was ready to GO!

But Hermione enjoyed the chance to pose a bit and show off her wand and scarf.

We were out trick or treating in the neighborhood for almost two hours! We didn't go very far - a few blocks from home in each direction - but the girls managed to almost completely fill their pumpkin buckets. By the time we were heading towards home, they had me carry the buckets because they were so heavy! We got to see a lot of friends and neighbors. It was a chilly night, but a lot of fun.

We love Halloween!
