Happy Halloween!

This year Meredith chose to be a witch for Halloween. Ironically, her best friend from next door chose to be a witch too and neither of them knew about it until they discussed it. We went trick-or-treating with them last year and it was so fun to see the girls transform from itty bittys who didn't even know how to trick-or-treat to two girls who run from door to door and giggle and take turns ringing doorbells. It was so adorable.


As much as we want to move, living in a townhouse has a lot of advantages on Halloween. You can cover way more ground in a lot less time with going from house to house. And our neighborhood has lots of kids so we had lots and lots of trick-or-treaters. It's kind of fun to watch the progression of 3-6 year olds from 5:30 - 7:00 and then the older kids up to teenagers who don't even wear costumes from 8:00 - 9:00. Shouldn't costumes be mandatory if you're trick-or-treating? I don't mind the teenagers looking for candy, but put a costume on already.







Here are a couple pictures of Meredith and her friend.








And sweet, little Anna. She didn't have a costume, but she had a great outfit.



And just for kicks,this is a picture of Meredith when she was the same age as Anna. I think they look so similar.
