Happy Halloween!

We went trick or treating in an charming little neighborhood between ours and her school with her classmates. The school had a "parade" which wasn't really much of a parade but mostly a walk around the yard. Oh well. Lucia seemed unimpressed and just wanted to get to the trick or treating part. Also, her teachers put her costume on her and forgot her bun (the horrors), crown and glass slippers. Tsk tsk. But we recovered. We liked going with the nicer boys in the class instead of the catty girls. I'm amazed at how early the cattiness starts, but have seen it first-hand. Lucia doesn't get wrapped up in it and is able to stand up for herself, but being sensitive, I know it bothers her. Anyway, we laughed with the fellow parents as we tried to get the boys to pose for this group shot. They were totally all over the map. Meanwhile, Lucia sat there nicely like duh, we're taking a picture, sit still. Boys and girls are so dramatically different; it's so hilarious to watch.

We went up and down one block and hit nearly every house, turned around and went down the other side of the street. Lucia said that her "bee bag" was full and she couldn't fit anymore candy and wanted to go home. Ok then! I'm still battling the residual effects of a cold, so I was all for that. We all ate candy in the car on the way home. She's already talking about next year; she wants to be Tinkerbell. Ok then!
