A Happy Halloween

Ellie and Tommy had an exciting Halloween.  We trick or treated in our neighborhood.  This trick or treating expedition didn't go as well as the one at their school.  Ellie was a little apprehensive this time around.  I believe it to be due to the mixture of: older children zooming around, strangers answering the door and it being dark.  A man answer the door dressed in a werewolf mask didn't help  :)

We did manage to get a few good shots though.  Enjoy!

Embarking on the outing with Cookie Monster and Elmo.  Tommy pretty much insisted on standing in the wagon at all times.

Here we go!

Success!

You can see I had to play an "involved" role.  At the end I was the one asking for the treats, taking them and thanking them.  We pulled the plug shortly after.

She did like the decorations on the houses.

This was my favorite.  We had just left the last house of the night and Ellie pulled Tommy into her lap, where he sat happily until we got home.  Sweet moment.
