For the past ten years, I have spent Halloween at Ray's parents' house. Halloween is Ann's favorite holiday, and she always hosts a party. Everyone wears costumes, and we eat chili and enjoy trick-or-treaters and trick-or-treating. This year, although a little different with no Ray and no Elizabeth and her gang, was no exception.
Juliet was a kitty cat (but she refused to wear her tail).
Anna was Einstein for reasons mentioned here. And also because I think spending $20 on a costume for a 2-month old is crazy.
This was the first year Juliet was old enough to trick-or-treat, so I took her to some neighboring houses. At the first house, we knocked on the door, and when they opened the door to give her candy, she got a little freaked out because they were strangers. She wanted me to pick her up, but she relaxed as she saw some other kids her age also out, and warmed up to getting candy. After four houses, she was tired (it's a long way to walk for such a small girl).
So we went back to Jack and Ann's, and Juliet promptly handed out pieces of candy to all in attendance. It was the cutest, sweetest thing. There was no candy left in her bucket, and she wasn't bothered at all. I love her so much!
