Halloween was a blast! I wasn't sure how Sophia would react to all the Halloween commotion and costumes but our little bumble bee had so much fun! Since this was our first time, we followed the experienced families in the neighborhood. They lead us first to all the neighbors homes and then we walked down the street to two other neighborhoods. I honestly don't know where all the kid's got their energy, I was exhausted! Anyway, at first, Sophia simply followed the "big" kids as they walked up to the doors and yelled trick or treat. But it only took a few houses before she got the hang of it and quickly joined in. As all the doors opened she would 
politely greet the homeowner with "hi" and wait for a quick response which then gave her the ok to yell , "trick or treat". She then carefully picked out one piece of candy and look up to say "thank you, bye, bye".
We saw a few people with "scary" masks and worried they would frighten her but she just pointed and said "oh no, ouch, kiss", thinking they had gotten hurt. We even stopped by a "spooky house" which she quickly reminded me of first thing Saturday morning. In fact, every time she now sees her costume hanging in her closet she says "trick or treat" and "spooky house". We really did have a great time and can't wait for next year!!!!
