It was an action packed extendo Halloween celebration over here at the Clark house. First off there was the costume party at Little Gym that Madison took Dylan to, then there was our neighbor Lil' Sam's birthday party followed by Trick or Treating up on California Street - where Dylan met Pooh.
Oh it was love at first sight! Then she took off running down the street to trick or treat. It was a beautiful day, which made for TONS of kiddos out and about. Dylan would spot different costumes and say 'hey momma, look a pirate, arrrrgh!', it was very funny.
Auntie Beans met up with us to help tag team the event - and thank goodness as it was a mad house! Jill's comment, which I loved, "thank goodness you dress her in something bright". We took her from store to store, some of the stores you had to actually go into which was a drag as being so small Dylan would push her way in, take 5 minutes (yes, 5 minutes) picking out just the right bite size piece of candy, giving me enough time to get into the store to round her up and shoo her out the door where Auntie Beans caught her at the other end - not sure what I would have done with out her! Dylan had a blast! So you could only imagine how excited she was to get dressed up all over again and hit the Halloween event on admiral Halloween afternoon. Here's a few videos. At the neighborhood bike shop they had a big old spider that would come down from the ceiling. At one point Dylan says she's scared as she's going back in to investigate. We were there for 15 minutes, the whole time Dylan yelling 'more, more, more. hey, come pet the spider'. The other video is of her again running down the street! Thank goodness Auntie Beans joined us again! At our last stop they had a free photo booth. The witch handing out candy asked Dylan if she wanted to get her picture taken, so we went in to take a look. The photographer asked d if she wanted to get her picture taken and very loudly she said 'no thanks, i've got to go.' Everyone had tears of laughter. As we hit the front door she changed her mind and actually really got into it, hence the first photo on the post.Later that night I draped Dylan and Maggie with glow sticks to really go with the space theme. They looked great. When Matt got home from work we all headed out. Apparently Dylan thought that after you said 'trick or treat' to the neighbors they should let you into their home so you could check out EVERYTHING. After the 3rd neighbors house this happened at I took the dog home to pass out candy and let Matt handle the rest of the treating. HA! They didn't make it too far.
More Halloween pictures to come when I get them from Matt, he took some great ones.
