Halloween

Her last first holiday (if you can call Halloween a holiday). Of course we had to let her experience it! We started off at one of the girls in my discipleship group house. Her family does an annual Chili dinner and Halloween party. So fun to see all the kids together. Once again, I must say it, Lyla LOVES other kids.

Lyla was a cupcake for Halloween. She did not mind her costume and actually kept her hat on the entire night. So cute! After dinner, we went over to my parent's cul-de-sac and took her around to all the neighbors houses. This is were I trick-or-treated as a kid and it was so fun to show her off to all the neighbors that had seen me trick-or treat! My parent's street is special. No one has moved on or off the street (except for one) since we have lived there. We joke that everyone will die living on that street. There were no kids living on the street as we grew up there. All of them had grown up. We were it. So everyone was like grandparents to us and we have special memories with each family.

Anyways, we took Lyla around, and she had no clue what was going on. She did finally get up the courage to pick out a piece of candy at one house and that is the piece she decided she wanted to eat that night. The big winner?? A cherry tootsie roll pop. She loved it. Once we got back to my parents, that girl ate the entire thing down to the stick. It probably took her about 30-45 minutes, but she did it. And boy did she enjoy it!! Now we feel like the Holiday season can really begin. And yes I have started playing Christmas Music.

Ready to Go!
