Halloween 2010

So this year was a pretty special Halloween for Amelia, as it was the first we've actually been Trick-or-treating door-to-door. We borrowed a costume from our daycare provider (Thanks Julie!!), and it was quite a hit! We had tons of compliments, and people just thought it was hilarious.

Friday evening, Amelia and I went to Boo at the Zoo with our friend, Kirk and Rachel and their boys, Alec and Colton. Luke was out of town again, so he couldn't come. On Halloween night, we visited our next-door neighbors, and went across the street to say hi to Aunt Naynay. Then we jogged across town to visit Amelia's surrogate grandparents here in Lincoln, Jane and Dave Polson. We went inside and chatted with them for a bit and then we headed out to the Highlands to Trick-or-treat with a coworker of mine and her family. They have three boys, and one is just a few months older than Amelia, so he showed her the ropes.

It was a pretty nice evening, a little cool, but still comfortable. Amelia got the hang of it real quick and was hitting the houses like a pro. Since we've always gone to people we know, she was a little confused at first. She asked "Why don't we go inside their house?!?" But after a bit, she understood how it worked. At one house, she saw a giant TV on their wall downstairs, and she leaned over and said "What are you watching?" Little Miss Nosy!!! The lady laughed and told her they were watching football. At another house, where they also had a little girl about 2-ish, Amelia wanted to go inside and play with her toys. Then when we were leaving, she tried to take a toy lawnmower from their yard! Silly girl! Overall, we had a good evening with good friends. We didn't get as big of a stash as I thought we might, but that's good... last thing we need is candy lasting 'til next Halloween!!
