What a great Halloween we had this year. We started by carving pumpkins last night with Maria, and despite Mommy wanting to make something fun or cute, she insisted on a scary pumpkin, settling for the "
Pumpkin King". Then, for the big night tonight, we got the kids dolled up (literally for Maria) and headed out for some trick-or-treating. Maria (or Cinderella) was quite into it this year, saying the appropriate "trick-or-treat" and "thank-you" at each house. What really surprised me though was how quickly William (or Gus the mouse) caught on! After just three houses William was running up the driveways, holding out his bag (and opening it or simply showing people via pointing that the candy was to go inside), and then toddling off to the next house. I can only imagine what it will be like next year!
