Trick-or-treating...

 
(Friends: Bradley with daughter Corley the duck; Fender and me; and Jayme the Bumblebee.)

Festivities began with the Halloween party at daycare. Our first trick-or-treating was at Memaw and Papa's where we scored big time with several Reese's Peanut Butter cups. Yummy! Fender ran off lots of energy, apparently the result of lots of sugar from the party earlier. He ate some of Memaw's meatloaf and black eye peas then we met up with Daddy for some more trick-or-treating. When we got back home, we turned on the porch light and lit the pumpkins and handed out candy to about 30 trick-or-treaters before we turned the light out a little past 9:00PM when we had given out all our good chocolate bars and Momma was ready to get out of her scarecrow costume and have some dinner.
 

This costume really made it look like Elmo was eating the party snack and not the kid.
 

Corley as a duck was one of the cutest costumes I have ever seen on a kid. The feet really made the whole thing work too because when she walked, it looked like she was waddling. It was too much!
 

These two pics were at Memaw and Papa's where Fender first negotiated his way out of his Yoda ears and ultimately out of his Jedi robe when it was time to eat. Fender loves playing outside at their house. Who can blame him...they have a big yard with no stickers, a small green house with sand to stick your toes in, and lots of love and cookies too...who could want anything more?
