i've always liked halloween. but it is so much more enjoyable with kids! this was mae's first "real" halloween. last year she was only a month old. so this year we actually did some trick-or-treating. well, sort of. we went to gram and gramp's house, and then to grandma and grandpa's. i figured she can't even say trick-or-treat, so i didn't see the point in going out. but she did have fun in her costume and seeing her grandparents. and she loved watching all the kids that came by trick-or-treating.
this is the little munchkin last year on halloween...it went by so fast!
this year we decided to dress her as a clown. my mom made these clown costumes for erich and i like 20 some years ago. back when we were the dynamic duo. all four of us at some point have dressed as clowns in these costumes. and my mom still had them, so mae suited up. coleman asked me what she was going to be, and i told him she was going to wear the clown costumes mom made, and he was like "those things still exist?" that's how old these bad boys are. but, they are still adorable. and a clown seemed quite fitting for our little goober.
hamin' it up for the camera
she be-lined for the candy bowl at both houses. and she figured out real quick that she got to take it and put it in her little pumpkin.
it's so fun to watch her experience new things, and to create our own traditions as a little family.
That costume's so cute!! It looks brand new!
