Halloween is not my favorite 'holiday', mainly because I just don't know what to do about it. I'm a very black and white person and this is a grey area. So, Eric is in charge of it and since it is in the middle of football season, it always sneaks up on us. Eric kept asking Mali what she wanted to be and she kept saying a pumpkin. I had planned on throwing together a homemade pumpkin princess costume but Eric ended up finding a Pumpkin princess costume on Wal Mart, a size 6/8 kids large, and asked if that would fit our skinny little lady. After some stitching it up, it worked great and she looked adorable. Eleri wore some cute Halloween tights from MeeMee and Papa. Mali decided that Eleri was dressed as a piece of candy.
We went to Paramount Baptist's Treat Street. It was pretty packed and crazy and in the middle of it, it hit me that we may have entered a swine flu contamination area. So we left, apparantely missing the little kid area. But Eric drove Mali to a few of the
coaches' houses and we even stopped at 'the big house with the dogs' in the Greenways (Mali is still talking about this house). She got a full sized package of Skittles there. We ended the evening by visiting Aunt Megan and Uncle Chris. We didn't get to spend enough time over there since we had to get the girls to bed, but neither girl wanted to go to bed once we got home, must have been the sugar high! Mali has been enjoying the candy and sugar high the rest of this week.
