Happy Halloween!

What a great week! I celebrated Halloween all week long, starting on Tuesday at Ballet. Everyone wore their costumes to class and we got a treat (a sticker) at the end. I was a ladybug this year and I wore the costume Granny made for me. My friend, Ella, was Snow White (and her Grandma made her costume, too!)

My school party was on Wednesday and it was so much fun. Mommy and I were in charge of bringing sugar cookies so we baked them in the shape of pumpkins, ghosts and cats. Someone else brought frosting and sprinkles and we got to decorate them at the party.

Finally, the big day arrived and boy, was Friday a busy day. I had school in the morning and I wore my sparkly pumpkin top and my orange pumpkin socks. Mommy and I baked pumpkin muffins after school and then we went to my friend Colin's house for a party. Colin and his mom had made sandwiches shaped like bats, spiders and pumpkins! After that, we came back home and, along with Daddy, we went down the street to Maren & Zoe's house where they were having a soup & chili buffet before we went out trick-or-treating.

Daddy took me trick-or-treating and even though we only went to the houses on our street, I got a LOT of candy. I even got a little ladybug toy from Joe & Barbara Erak (I wonder how they knew I was going to be a ladybug).

After trick-or-treating, we went across the street to Owen & Andrew's house for another party. I had one piece of candy, a lollipop, but then I was ready to go home. My friend Lily and I were both pretty tired at that point so we left to go home to bed. But what a fun day. I love Halloween!
