Trick or Treating 2008

Lucy didn't really know what was going on at all, but she was really excited about whatever it was we were getting all worked up about. I didn't get a great picture of her costume, but you can tell who she is. I could have painted her nose, but I decided it wasn't worth it, she would have that little black nose smeared so fast all over her face, gloves, dress, you name it. But Lucy thought she was "so pretty" as Minnie. Here she is getting ready to push the door bell at one of the first houses.

We spent Halloween up in Highlands Ranch so that we could meet Jason's girlfriend Katie. She was such a sweet girl, and Lucy just loved her. When Dave put on his terrifying costume, Lucy turned and ran straight to Katie with her arms up saying "Hold you!" Jason and Katie came with us trick or treating and had a lot of fun taking the kids from door to door.

As the night went on, Lucy was loving trick or treating. She would get so excited for each house. I have a couple videos of her at the doors of a couple of houses, because you have to hear her little voice as she says "trick or treat" to really understand what I am talking about. I'll get those up as soon as I can.

Before we went in, we hurried and took a couple family pictures. Here is one of Shawn, Lucy and I, and one of Shawn's brother Dave, his wife Adriana, and their little Lobster Matthew. We had so much fun trick or treating with them, and we loved that all it took was 15 houses in the cul-de-sac across the street. The kids got hooked up too because there were NO trick or treaters. I don't know if the demographics have changed in Highlands Ranch, or if people are too paranoid these days, but we had the doorbell ring a total of like 5 times all night. So sad.

But Lucy and Matthew loved that, more candy for them! And as you can see, they really loved it!
