We got to be at home this year for Halloween and all the festivities (I am 31 weeks pregnant and can't go anywhere.) Our evening was beautifully crisp and clear, even an almost full moon! After dinner, Mallory got her costume on and out we went.
This year she helped pick out her bumble bee costume. Several days after we brought this home from Target, she discovered the Pottery Barn Kids catalog and REALLY wanted to be a cupcake. Thankfully by the time I inquired, the company was sold out system wide. Yeah for me, we saved about $60! Her next option was to be a bumble bee like the one in their catalog. I stuck to our original Target costume but caved on the yellow face painted flower. She talked about this flower on her cheek for three solid weeks. yes, seriously.
We ventured out into our kid friendly neighborhood and made it to 3 houses. Yes, only three. Mallory has this fear of scary masks (rightfullly so in my opinion) and she was DONE. "Mommy, I want to go home." Alrighty then, home we went. Once we got home, she DELIGHTED in the trick-or-treaters ringing our doorbell. She lit up each time the bell rang and wanted to help pass out candy. I will also confess she wanted to trick-or-treat from our candy bowl. Since I really didn't care, she got to have lollipops and bubbles from our stash every time the door closed and it was "her turn". So very cute and such a fun night for us all.
I'm sure I don't have to tell you that is a very cute bumblee bee that you have. I did also want to say that I *love* your wreath though!
