Happy Halloween

This was the first year we took Tolla out to trick or treat. We had fun even though we got a later start than I wanted. We went to our neighbor Gail's house first. Tolla went inside and didn't want to leave. LOL We hoped this wasn't a trend and she only did so cuz we go over there once in a while. However, the next house we went to we don't visit and she tried to go in again! uh oh. We told her she couldn't and she didn't try to go into any more houses (thank goodness). She loved ringing the doorbells and saying trick or treat, then she'd open her little bag (as long as mommo would remember to let go her hand). She'd always say thank you afterwards. A couple times she kept her bag open and got a few more treats! LOL There was one house we went to that was really decorated and the guy was dressed up like a skeleton on the porch while you ring the doorbell. He was really quiet and just kind of waved his fingers at Tolla. She would not take her eyes off him! I don't know what she thought of him but even after she got her treat and we put her back in the wagon she just wouldn't stop staring. I think she may have been a little scared. It was cute and he said happy halloween as we were leaving. She just had a blast though. As we pulled up to the next house she'd already be trying to get out of the wagon to go up to the door! It didn't seem like there were a lot of trick or treaters out this year though. In past years I remember the street being lined with kids and this year it wasn't like that. We still have a ton of candy left over and I think because we didnt' decorate for halloween this year we didn't get as many trick or treaters. Bummer, we'll definately be decorating next year! Here are some pics: And some video of Tolla earlier in the day:
