Trick or Treat!!




Guess what I dressed up as for Halloween? A fireman - no, really, how did you guess that one???? I had a really cool outfit with a hat, badge, an axe (what was my mom thinking?), a fire extinguisher and a walkie talkie. It was just perfect for the evening because it rained here a little bit - it was sort of a fireman rain slicker. My mom - she's apretty smart gal, isn't she?

Joshie dressed up as a monkey (this outfit has been worth its purchase price since I have worn it for 2 previous Halloweens myself). He was so cute and miraculously left on his ears most of the night.
I loved saying trick or treat and after each house I ran to Mom and said "Okay, let's go to the next house!!" By the end of the evening I had an entire pumpkin full of candy. Yes, Mommy got to go this year - you might remember that she was laid up at home due to Joshie being born just one day earlier last year.
I was especially afraid of anything spooky this year and refused to go to a couple of houses on our street. I saw a couple of costumes that also terrifed me (one tall kid in a furry ape costume and another kid in the "Scream" outfit). Mom said that particular costume scared her as well!
Joshie and I got to wear our costumes twice this year as we wore them to a kids place and got a reduced admission to play. Also, earlier in the week, we went to the pumpkin patch and I got a ghost painted on my face. See the cute pics above of me and several of my little friends on big night!
