An Autumn Halloween

Today was Halloween and I got to dress up! The first place we went was to aunt Penny's house. Aunt Penny's husband has the same name as my papa but he's really tall. I was a little scared but Aunt Penny's Michael gave me lots of candy boxes to play with and that helped me a lot.


Next I got to go trick or treating by my house. Mrs. King gave me a reese's peanut butter cup and I had fun smushing it. Uncle Donnie and his girlfriend Aunt Elizabeth (I have lots of Aunts, isn't that funny?) came over and brought Oliver! He's so cute. I like to pat his back. He likes me and mama but not many other people. I think he likes us cause we're small, too.


We went to see Mrs. Ari who lives around the corner. I walked almost the whole way all by myself! We saw a kitty on the way! Oliver likes kitties. I do, too! But the kitty didn't like us. Its tail got poofy.


Mrs. Ari's house was fun but her doggie Marley took my candy bag. I wasn't very happy about it although all the grownups laughed.


It's okay though because I got to wap him with my magic wand.


After going to Mrs. Ari's, we went to Ridgeway and got to see lots of people like Nanny and Boppa and Mama Lainey and Papa D. Sometimes big crowds scare me, though, so we didn't stay long. Papa D fed me chocolate and Mama Lainey gave me chips so that means it was a good night. I even let them take a picture!


Here's me, mama, and papa! Mama has been sick this week but she was excited about halloween. I think Papa had a really good time, too!


Papa? Papa? Oh, well.

wow...

Saturday afternoon we got to spend some time with Elizabeth Wiggs and her mom Renee Shackleford. We had a super fun time...it was really cool getting to know Elizabeth and I always love seeing either Mr. or Mrs. Shackelford. I told Mike's mom once that I hope that Mike and I are like the Shacklefords "when we grow up." Elizabeth was soooo patient. We'd had a little bit of a rough day so we were late and frazzled and Miss Autumn was, um, not cooperative. You'd never guess it by looking at the pictures, though!

I swiped two of my favorites from Elizabeth's flickr stream (sorry!) and pretty much the all the rest of my favorites are posted on her blog: elizabethwiggsphotography.blogspot.com.

I love, love, love this one. We've been trying to get this facial expression on camera because it is so hysterical. I call this Autumn's Mike Face or her Grumpy Face. Mike calls it her Intense Look.


This one is so sweet.


Go look at the others! They are awesome!

Thank you so much Elizabeth!! Thank you Mama Lainey and Mrs. Renee for entertaining our little monkey in ways I wish I had on video. :)
