Trick or Treat Downtown

We went to downtown trick or treat tonight.

Again this year, Mark went with us to take

pictures. Unless he's in them, photos by Uncle Mark.

SJ is wearing the tiger costume that Sophia

originally was going to wear...if she had been born early.

Here he is as we leave the house in his carseat...

a rare eyes wide open shot!?

Sophia picked out her costume from a pattern book.
I would have bet on a princess...but Tinkerbell

is pretty stinking cute!
Ready to start collecting candy!

Walking to downtown

Sophia had to get the hang of asking for candy again...
she was a quick learner!
She didn't care for the people handing out the candy

to place the piece of candy in her pumpkin.
She preferred they hand it to her...
and SHE would place it in the pumpkin.
Only explanation I can come up with,

she thought they were trying to take her candy!

Thank you!
Again...place it in herself.

Holding on tight to Uncle Mark's leg.
Some of the costumes freaked her out a little.
One spiderman really made her grip my hand tight.
Go figure, not the grim reaper...Spiderman?

Looking at Aubie
Aubie was downtown posing for photos.

Only way she would get close...

Uncle Mark had to pick her up!
Notice the little girl to the right...

Steve carried SJ in the front pack.
Here he is moving SJ's feet up and down
dancing to the music!
Really cool band played in the center.

There was a good turn out

SJ peeking out...

Stopping to partake of the goodies,

in the middle of the street!

Me and my baby girl

Sophia and I dancing to the band

Hugs

Quick dip!

Love the downtown area

Sophia flapping her fairy wings

With sugar in her veins...
Sophia pretty much ran to the Jeep!

Neat moment, Sophia checking out the butterflies
in the store window...

SJ & I
my little tiger

We didn't collect as much candy as last year...
but I think that we had so much more fun!
Sophia certainly had a blast!

Thank you Mark for going with us,

but also capturing the moment!
