Halloween!

On the kid calendar, Halloween is a big deal. At Molly's age, we're just starting to get into the Halloween hype. We had a fabulous weekend. First and foremost, Molly and Henry's maternal grandparents came up to visit. They had been in Australia when Henry was born so they finally got to meet the little dude. We had a fun, though brief, visit. Here's Grandpa T. holding his new grandson:


Molly was very excited about the whole weekend. She dressed as a doggie this year, saying "Woof Woof!" and "I'm going to lick you!" Henry, at only a month old, went with a pumpkin theme.




The holiday weekend really started on Friday, with Molly's parade at her daycare. All the kids looked SO adorable, including a baby Michael Jackson, an adorable big-butted Nemo, and various princesses and superheroes. Here's our little puppy peering out among the other kids at the parade:


Then on Halloween day, we went to a fun party at some friends' house, where the kids got themselves all wound up in preparation for trick-or-treating. After the party, we went door-to-door with Molly and her best bud Izzy and her parents. The girls had a total blast, and were very excited to say "Trick or Treat!" at each door. After that, we all had dinner together, along with the grandparents, while the girls played and laughed before ending up in the inevitable pile of tears and screaming, the result of hours of fun and candy. What else could a kid ask for on Halloween?
