Trick or Treating 2011

Aurora dressed as Jesse the Cowgirl for Halloween! Our day starteed off like usual, early wake up, have some breakfast.....

"mom, seriously? stop taking pictures! Its just Cheerios."

The cutest cowgirl ever! She took this little soft pony to school for nap time, but told me "Mom, its too small for me to ride!"

Posing next to our pumpkins on Halloween day!

After school and work we came home and got ready to go out Trick-or-Treating. Our friends Danielle and Riley (as Aurora calls him: Riley the Boy, not to be confused with Rylie the girl!) came over to join us. Aurora took her stick pony with her this time.



"Giddy Up!"

Ringing the bells, they took turns - and then would peek in the windows.

Cowgirl America!!!!

At some point in the night Riley and Aurora traded accessories - thus transforming Aurora into.......

 As the night drew to an end the kiddos gave up and rode in the Wagon. It was a great night. we went through Aurora's candy haul and picked out 10 pieces. The rest we left in a bag for the GREAT PUMPKIN to come and get.

For those of you not 'in the know' about the Great Pumpkin.... let me tell you....

The Great Pumpkin comes in the night and takes away your Halloween candy, then leaves you a gift in its place. This is great - Aurora is happier with a gift than she would be with hoards of candy (and so are her teeth!) This year the Great Pumpkin left her a new color wonder coloring book of Dinosaur Train!
