I have been waiting for Halloween since November 1, 2010. It’s my favorite holiday by far. So many magical things happen in the month of October, and I’m just now starting to remember them from one year to the next. So even though this is my fourth Halloween, it’s the first year I’ve gotten excited. Because I remember. I remember what happens.

There’s candy. Lots and lots of candy.

But it’s more than just the candy. This year, I got to go to a Halloween party at Nanny’s house and I marched in a Halloween parade. But I must admit, the highlight was the trick or treating. I continued in the tradition that has been going on every year for my entire life– all three years– of trick or treating with my cousin Lucas, Uncle Jonathan, and Auntie Amy.

This year, I showed Lily the ropes. Did Lily love trick or treating? I’ll let you be the judge of that.

Here we are getting ready to march in the parade. Lily insisted on getting whiskers to be like me. She doesn't realize that pumpkins don't have whiskers, but that's okay.

She's still the cutest pumpkin of all time. By the way, check out the pumpkin hat grandma knit for her. Grandma rocks!

A little love between sisters, then we're off to the parade

I found my friend Eamon and marched with him. Lily was mocking us. Stinker.

Here I am with all my friends from Nanny's. She throws killer parties!

On to the main event. Meow!

What did I tell you? Cutest Pumpkin ever. And yes, that's my cousin Lucas giving me the business end of his weapon in the background.

So okay. The video quality isn’t great on this (I blame daddy– his “smart” phone really isn’t that smart).  However, you can get a glimpse into our Halloween night, however grainy and dark.
