As I have said before, I have never been a huge fan of holidays. This is the first holiday season my daughters are old enough to enjoy. Nicole really enjoys holiday lights but gets a little nervous around all the "scary" decorations. Nadia is bomb proof and thinks the decorations are great fun.
Last night they had their first adventure in Trick or Treating. We first visited a friend early in the afternoon to ease them into ringing doorbells for candy. At first they both were hesitant but got the hang of it when candy made its appearance. We visited our friend for awhile then headed to my Mom's neighborhood.
They may have learned a bad lesson when they rang Grandma's doorbell and she gave them candy. I hope they don't think this will happen every time we visit Grandma. We spend time visiting with Grandma and a few of her neighbors.
Nadia dressed as a parrot, her costume took a little getting used to as she dislikes things on her head. Once she discovered everyone thought she was super cute she consented to the hat.
Nicole originally was going to be a cow but she decided that her costume was not ok. She was then made into a kitty which she approved of. Nicole LOVES cats and starts every day with hugging at least one of her kitties.
Both girls had a lot of fun, but were worn out afterwards. I am glad we did the trick or treating early though as it got crowded in our neighborhood as the night wore on. I was surprised how many older (teenage) kids were trick or treating. I saw many high school age kids asking for candy, one even asked for money.
