Happy Halloween!

Anna had so many fun activities she wanted to do for her first Halloween, that she celebrated for two days! First, Anna's Halloween daytime outfit - consisting of the black turtle neck that Uncle Dan pointed out would be perfect for Halloween, a bib from her grandma, and who knew it, but she happened to have orange and white striped pants in her closet!

On Halloween night Anna slept a little later from her afternoon nap - she wanted to be well rested for her evening. When she got up, Mom, Dad, & Anna all had dinner quick and then Anna hoped into her horse costume (from her Nana!):

Anna's first trick-or-treat was at the Smith's house (next door), where she picked out some Whoppers for herself. Anna hit a few more houses before we ran into our neighbors, Elise & Andrew, who were trick-or-treating in a group of about 10 kids ages 1 1/2 to 4. We trekked around with them for a little while and Anna admired all the little kids costumes & she took notes about how to work the treats better next year :)

Finally we landed at our neighbor's Nick & Jennifer, where Anna got to hang out with Porter, the pug dressed as a devil, and Maddy, the lab dressed as an angel. It was too hard to get all three of them in the picture, but her is Anna with the "devil":


After all that excitement Anna was ready for bed. However we continued the Halloween celebrations last night by once again visiting the house with over 100 carved pumpkins. Here are our favorites from this year:




And of course, Halloween would not be complete without some pumpkin custard from Neilson's, where we ended our Halloween celebrations last night:
