One Happy Mamma=One Happy Halloween!

SHE WORE THE HAT!!!! I should've known that if I just left it to Dave it would get done. She fights ME on everything, but "Da-yay" (that's how she says Daddy) is the clear favorite. Sure enough, he wore it and let her play with it, and before we knew it, it was a fixture on her head for the night. No wig, but I'll take what I can get! And seeing how cute she was in that hat made ALL the sewing time worth it, 100 percent!

Here are a few of my favorite pictures of the night, then a slideshow of all the rest!

Emma and Elizabeth just love each other to pieces!


Checking out the loot

Two little buddies smooching!! HEHEHE! We sat Drew and Bree next to each other for some pictures (they're just a few weeks apart in age) and we just asked them to give each other a kiss. Boy, did they pull that one off!! This is probably my favorite picture of all!


Bree LOVES dogs, so every house that had one got an extra little conversation from Bree-a little high-pitched "hi doggie" and a cute little "teenk u" (thank you) and an exuberant wave good-bye. I just love the look of pure delight she had whenever she saw one.

This look is a little fanatical, if I say so myself. But Emma was so excited about trick-or-treating. It was all she could talk about all day. So this picture just sums up how she felt about it!


Here's the little Strawberry Shortcake crew-Lemon Meringue, Strawberry Shortcake, and Blueberry Muffin. We got a lot of comments from the people in front of their houses about how they were their favorite characters in the 80's! They looked so cute!
