i had to laugh at the kind man who thought the girls were dressed as a bird and a bug when we stopped to trick-or-treat at his house. to be more specific, C was dressed as a "beautiful butterfly." anytime you asked her what she was going to be for halloween and that's the answer you would get. not just a butterfly, but a beautiful butterfly. and miss L was dressed as an owl, C's costume from last year. likely my favorite costume we've had thus far as it's warm and cozy.
they both had a grand time walking around the neighborhood in the dark and gathering loot. specifically m&ms. and somehow, L scored more candy that C. i think we have enough candy to last us until we head out again next year.
and those pumpkins? the hard labor of my dear husband, father-in-law and sister-in-law last night. like three hours of carving. the girls were thrilled this morning to wake up and find them sitting on the dining room table. you can't go wrong with elmo, grover, a spider and a scaredy cat.
SO happy grover is getting some love out there. he's one of my favorites and has taken such a back burner since elmo came along. ;)
super cute costumes on the girls. and indeed, miss c is one BEAUTIFUL butterfly.
