Trick Or Treat

 Every year I try to dress up, I always go with something simple.. this year it was a cat... which I was in College one year and I went around saying, "I'm a cat, Meow"  Which I taught to my kids this year.. and most houses Ava announced to Everyone that "Mommy is a cat, meow."  Everyone laughed!
 Ella getting ready to go Trick or Treating... do you see these $8 trick or treat bags?  That is what happens when you go to buy a 99 cent pumpkin bag and you wait till the day before and all they have left are these... Good thing I could "sell" them to Daniel... "yeah honey, they can use them every year... and for Easter baskets... and Birthday... and dress up... they are all purpose."


 Picking our flowers before we went...


 Ella ready to go, She said, "Happy Halloween & Trick or Treat " to everyone! She wasn't shy at all!


 Ava kept saying, "Lets go to the next house".... (Some had their lights off, so I guess I kept saying that... by the end of the night she said it.)
We met up with our cousins Claire and Andrew to go trick or treating, they came to our neighborhood.  This was the first house... Snow White! :)
