Ava was a lady bug. Her costume had wings so she thought she was a Lullafly. Either one works, I guess! :)
Grandma came over and we headed over to the community center. The police department did a little Halloween carnival for kids. It was so fun!! They had games for the kids to play and gave out lots of little prizes! It was packed FULL of people!
We headed home for dinner after that, and then went trick or treating!! Ava was really excited to go! She had been talking about it for a few days. We put on some warmer shoes for her and headed out! She was so cute! She had the knocking thing down quick! She knocked pretty lightly, but most of the time people heard her. When they would answer the door she would say "Trick or Treat" in a high pitched voice. Then she would say "Thank you" the same way. She even asked one lady to "Open it" when she gave her a sucker. Haha. She tried to go in to a few houses, but for the most part, she was pretty good!! We stayed out for about 45 min or so. She got a good amount of loot!
When we got home she started opening up her candy. She would take a few licks of suckers and then ask us "Mommy, hold it, Daddy hold it, Grandma hold it" so she could get another one out and open it. We just let her go through it and try whatever she wanted. :)
She asked a few times today if she could go trick or treat. I assume this will go on for a long time!! She still asks atleast once a day if she can 'go ride Thomas', and that was back in July!
So.... I took 183 pictures. WOW! I narrowed it down to 25. I know... 25!!!
