Trick-or-Treat!

We kicked off our Halloween weekend with a visit from Emily and new baby Riley, just 6 days younger than Ruby! Emily's husband and Sean are cousins, so Riley is a second cousin (?) to Sadie and Ruby. As always, Sadie was happy to pose for a photo.




We spent the afternoon trick-or-treating downtown Newburyport. Sadie chose to wear her Elmo costume (again) instead of her Super Sadie costume. So off we went. I think we made it into 5 stores in a matter of an hour and a half. Almost-2-year-olds don't trick or treat very efficiently!



We met up with some friends downtown for the event- here is Tilman the frog, Sadie, and Elsie the (sad) dog posing on the haystacks!



Sadie had a lot of firsts today, including Almond Joys, Mounds bars, Snickers, and the ever so popular Tootsie Pop. We will never know how many licks it takes to get to the center of it. She didn't have THAT much patience to get through it!




We spent the afternoon on the real Halloween carving pumpkins and working on saying the word, "jack-o-lantern." Unsuccessful.



On Halloween night I actually didn't even give Sadie a chance to choose between her Elmo costume or Super Sadie, given that she had already worn Elmo about 6 times this week. Unfortunately little Ruby didn't make it into her tiger costume for trick-or-treating since she was snoozing in her car seat!



We had a quick Park Lunch pizza dinner at Grammy & Grampy's before heading out in search of candy, and got a quick shot of Maggie, Sadie and Kelte all ready to go!
