Halloween... a little bit late

I know, I know... first I post for Halloween way too early, now way too late. But, you know how the saying goes.... better late than never.... As you can see Xiana was a ferocious Little Bo Peep. I am happy to relay that she now knows the lines to that favorite nursery rhyme.
She got these disgusting teeth and I'm positive that Brian had wayyy more fun with them than anybody else. Please note that this is one of many self portraits taken on Halloween night.
She got a lot of loot! Including whistles, sunglasses, coloring books, etc. Brian said that at one house she and Rowan were the last on the doorstep and the guy kept saying how cute they were and putting more and more candy in their baskets. It does pay to be little and cute on Halloween. Xiana ran to keep up with her cousins and friends. Her little head was bouncing every step of the way as she took her three bounces for every one of her accompanying peers.
This was the group of kids.... accompanied by 9 adults. Can you say overwhelming? One of the houses a woman yelled out, "don't worry, I'm giving them enough for all of you!" What can I say? We are an involved group.
We did carve a jack-o-lantern... and then promptly forget to put it outside ever... not even once. Oh well, it was awfully cute!
And Xiana got a kick out of the disgusting insides. "Ewwww!" she squealed.
At our ward's trunk-or-treat I asked Brian to take a picture of us. "'Why?" he asked, "we already have this picture from last year. Okay okay... enough already!
Yet, these are virtually the same pictures as last year. This year there was one MAJOR difference. Brian is now daddy and he got to go trick-or-treating with us which was a treat!
Earlier in the week we were fortunate to attend LOTS of Halloween parties and playgroups. This one was particularly fun with a spider craft and cupcakes!!!
Xiana wouldn't let the spider out of her sight... it took a week before I could get it away and dispose of it. She loved it! So cute!
