Happy Halloween!

Last week was Halloween.  Emme was so excited.  She loves to play dress up.  So much that she tries to force poor Livi to dress up too.  Livi isn't interested yet in dress up or some of the things Emme does.  This year the girls were Care Bears.  I made the costume out of felt and hoodies along with my poor sewing skills.  Emme loved it she would growl at me and tell me she was a bear.  Livi loved the hood because she could pull it up herself.  In the morning we took the girls to see their Grandpa Wayne (Matt's Dad) in the hospital.  He had knee surgery and was happy to see them in their costumes.  Though they weren't too sure about the hospital.  Then we went to Lunch with Matt's mom.  We then went home for a nap before setting out for Trick or Treating.   Since we were going to be gone most of the night we decided to leave the candy on the front step with the help of our pumpkin. Our first stop of the night is always our neighbor Jadean who always makes the girls a special treat.  Once Livi realized there was candy at each door our candy monster was off and running.  After a good hour Livi was tired and Matt took her home.  I took Emme around a bit more.  Emme just kept wanting to go.  She even told me to stay in a certain spot and she would go to the door herself.  I thought the funniest part was we went to a door and this woman came out and proclaimed.  "What a cute devil"  to Emme.  I corrected her she was a Carebear.  The woman then began telling some weird story.  I think she had been celebrating a bit much.  Emme loved Halloween so much she wanted to do it again.  Livi wanted Dum Dum the next day since we had lots left over.    
There is a reason I don't let Emme have knives, I just can't remember why.

Livi's attempt at making a silly face at Daddy

Let's go MOM!!!

She is a big cheese ball.  She demands to get her picture taken now

Our first stop our neighbors The Spencers.  The girls just adore them

Off to the next door with Livi in the lead. 

Our pumpkin that handed out our candy for us.  Matt said it looked like Pin  Head

Next day we hit Target for the Halloween clearance.  I got them some new stuff for their dress up box

She looks so happy doesn't she.
