Happy Halloween Birthday!

Even though this was Em's second Halloween, it was her "first" real Halloween. Em refused her lion costume so Brian whipped together a fairy princess outfit that "her royal highness" approved. Go figure.

We went to Kara and Ryan's and had a fabulous dinner, carved pumpkins, went trick or treating, ate candy, and then hung out playing Wii. I couldn't ask for a better night!

Ryan, Brian and Emma carved the three pumpkins we picked up at the pumpkin patch.

Diggin in!

Going back for more digging after I put on her costume. Fairies love pumpkin diggin too!

Stopping for a photo op!

The final pumpkins!

We decided to take Em around Beacon Hill for her first trick or treating experience. She figured it out pretty quickly, but initially she wanted to go into each house. "Emmie go in" she shouted after someone opened the door. I never realized how weird it is to have a door opened and shut without actually entering a house. With a little prodding she would say, "trick or treat" which was followed by "Happy Halloween" or "Happy Halloween Birthday!"

When we got back she got her first taste of Halloween candy which made her a little loopy.

This is how Em plays Wii.

For the rest of the night she claimed she was a kitty and hung out in K and R's cat tree.

Prrrrrrrrrr . . . . .
