Halloween

We felt Halloween this year was truly Emma's first Halloween.  This year she had a full understanding of what Halloween was all about: 

1.  You dress up in a funny costume. 
2.  You go to stranger's doors and say "trick-or-treat," and they give you CANDY!

After she decided on her own that she wanted to be a bee for Halloween, we made plans with our good friends the Carneys to spend Halloween with them in their super-awesome, family-friendly, Halloween-festive neighborhood.  After a couple of practice runs with Matt, Emma took to the street with enthusiasm, hitting somewhere around 15 houses before she announced she was done.  We were quite impressed with her stamina, and it made me feel like a kid again to see the excitement of Halloween through Em's eyes!
