Halloween 2011

Halloween 2011 has come to a close. I'm happy about this for a few reasons. First, we can now get rid of the candy we've been storing a pilfering for about a month. Second, I can pack away this Minnie dress that Sophie went from hating to begging to wear. And third, we are this much closer to having a baby. Sophie learned the art of "trick or treat" and the goodies that it brings her, so safe to say the big day was actually fun this year. (Stop over here if you want to see her last year as a precious little ladybug who didn't even walk yet. Time flies.)

Sophie's Yaya and Gampa came into town from FL for a quick visit between vacation and baby Barber's arrival. We had a good time of cooking, filling the freezer for aforementioned baby's arrival, trick-or-treating, watching football and just relaxing.

Daddy carved some great non-scary pumpkins for his little Minnie.

(She's not in jail, they just push the littles around in rolling cribs!)

Where the fun began. We gave her the "puckett" to carry

and she looked inside to tell us

"there nutthin' in it?"
