Happy Trick or Treat Day!

Last week at Charlie's preschool I stayed for a few minutes at the beginning so Annie could sing a few songs with Charlie and his classmates (she thinks it's her class too so occasionally I indulge her). After singing Miss Kristen asked if anyone knew what holiday was on Saturday. Charlie immediately blurted 'it's trick or treat day!' Close?

Anyways, below are pics of my little scarecrow and Spider-Man. And (dun dun dun) Dr. Octopus! The mad scientist intent on destroying Spider-Man!
Don't even get me started on how long Matt spent concocting his costume for the sole purpose of wearing it trick or treating. I'm going to have to leave that topic alone for the sake of our marriage.



Miss Annie was awesome trick or treating last night. Once she realized that all our neighbors were going to give her candy just for knocking on their doors she basically sprinted from house to house. My favorite was when they had a door with a window next to it and she'd peer in. Her scarecrow costume kind of morphed into a homeless baby costume once I started adding layers to keep her warm. Thankfully she acted the part and looked in people's windows, talked gibberish, and collected as much candy as she could carry.

I went as a homeless person several times for Halloween and people always liked it - at least she's a cute little hobo scarecrow! I'd like a husband that dresses up and wants to go trick-or-treating, so I count you lucky :)

Okay, I love scarecrow Annie but I'm ready for an update! Where are you?
