Halloween 2011

This Halloween was Samantha's first Halloween in the US,

which also meant that it was the first time trick-or-treating!

She dressed up as Abby Cadabby:

Posing next to her pumpkin

J&B also carved pumpkins.

Can you guess who carved the pirate and who carved the cat?

before heading out for trick-or-treating

We trick-or-treated in our neighborhood and there were TONS of kids! The neighborhood really got into the Halloween spirit and it was lots of fun.

The first few houses were a little intimidating for Samantha, but after that she got right into the groove. Then after a few more houses, she told us that she wanted to go up to the door by herself.

I guess at 2 1/2, her parents are already cramping her style! (Geeeez)

The Loot!

(Wow! She got a full-sized Snickers!?)

Samy got to pick out ONE piece of candy to enjoy before bedtime,

and she chose the blue lollipop

She also really liked having trick or treaters come to her house and

passed out some candy as well.

Happy Halloween!
