Halloween

Aubrey really enjoyed Halloween this year. I was happy that Aubrey decided to wear her costume. We had a trial run before the big day and she wanted nothing to do with it. We even got her to wear the hat. It wouldn't have been nearly as cute without it. We were lucky and had great weather. During the day it was in the 70s and at night it was in the 60s. Aubrey was sweating in her costume when we took it off at the end of the night! She loved it when the kids came to the door and Micah started barking hysterically. It was very exciting to have so many visitors.


We went around in the wagon. Daddy was dressed up as a Brewer's fan (only acceptable on Halloween given our normal devotion to the Cubs). Mommy dressed up as a pregnant woman wearing black, trying to minimize her size. :)


We practiced saying Trick or Treat at home, and she did great! Unfortunately, when it came to delivering her line in person, she had stage fright. She had no problem, however, remembering to take the candy and put it in her pumpkin. Maybe we'll do better at that next year.


Aubrey stayed quite comfortable in her wagon. We brought snacks and water just in case the walk around the neighborhood got too long. She did great. She was very interested in seeing some of her neighbor friends and all of the kids dressed up walking up and down the street.
