On Friday, Ally's school had a big Halloween party for all of the families. Ally got to put on her fairy dress and go play games and visit with her friends. Each room had different activities for the kids and they got lots of candy and treats. She was very good at the cake walk and the matching games. She was very excited to show off her costume and especially liked playing with her wings.
For trick or treating, we got home from school and rushed to get ready. There were a lot of kids in the neighborhood out and about, dogs too. Ally got to see her dog neighbor Brody who was dressed as a pumpkin and also Willow who was dressed as a bumble bee. She was more interested in watching the other kids in their costumes than she was in getting the candy herself. It was tough to keep her focused and walking on the sidewalk because there was so much to take in. She did not want to ride in her wagon like we had hoped but she did a decent job walking along. After about 45 minutes down the street we went in for dinner and to hand out candy to other kids coming by. I wouldn't say she totally understood what she was doing but she certainly liked filling her bag with candy. So far isn't too interested in eating it but we are ok with that!
An extra special thank you to Great Grandma Sandy for all of her hard work on Ally's beautiful costume. It was just an idea in passing that turned into anything better than I could have ever imagined. It looked just like Abby Cadabby, Ally's favorite Sesame Street character and as soon as she saw it she knew exactly what it was. We cant say thank you enough and are so excited it will fit her for a while yet.
