An Irish Halloween



Well Halloween has come and gone, but we sure did have a lot of fun. We started the day in town where we shopped, got scary movies and went to lunch at our favorite restaurant the Bistro. We then went to the park and enjoyed the beautiful day. After dinner Sofia got a real treat, a bat cookie! We were then off to go trick-or-treating, so we put on the monkey costume. At first Sofia SCREAMED!!!!!!! But after we put on a dancing monkey video she was fine with leaving the costume on. We went to a neighborhood close to Marian's house, and there were great decorated houses. At first Sofia didn't understand why we were knocking on people's doors, asking for candy and then leaving, but she soon caught on, and was all about ringing the door bell then waiting until the door opened and then lifting up her trick-or-treat bag:) She didn't like some of the scary masks, but loved watching all of the kids run from house to house.
