Halloween fun


My little one had her first real trick-or-treating experience.  We got her dressed up in her Hippo costume (Momma and Papa were zoo keepers) and walked her to a few of the neighbors houses.  She looked so cute walking down the street, in her costume, carrying her pumpkin bucket. She was so excited.
Then, we get to the door, and she freezes up.  She just stared at the neighbor, frozen, not saying a word, with her bucket at her side.  They talked to her. I tried getting her to talk. Nothing.  Finally, the neighbor would drop candy in her bucket. I would thank them and we would turn to go on.  As she walked away, she strutted, all excited about the candy she had just been given.  Even when we went to my husband’s grandmother’s house, she did the same thing.  She wouldn’t even speak for them.  But, after she got her candy, she was very excited and played very well.  She ran around saying “trick-or-treat” and asking for a piece of chocolate, like it was a game she could play with her dolls.
All in all, it was very cute. And, I am so excited for next year’s trick-or-treating fun!
But, now that Halloween is over, we all know what that means.  CHRISTMAS SEASON IS HERE!
