Video of me Trick or Treating

Happy Halloween!

Sticking with our Halloween tradition, I got all dressed up and headed up to Plano to Trick or Treat at The Shops at Willowbend and then at Sharon and Jim's house. Can you guess what I was for Halloween?? Yep, Sheriff Woody from Toy Story. Last minute I really wanted to be Bob from Monsters v. Aliens, but Mom couldn't find a costume.
Woo Woo and Matt came all the way up from Austin to Trick or Treat with me. Woo Woo was a beautiful butterfly princess and Matt was a Piggy at my request.

Trick or treating at the mall.

Warming up for a long night of Trick or Treating.

Scoping out the scene.

Getting the hang of this candy thing.

After mastering Trick or Treating at the mall I headed to Sharon and Jim's house.

Aren't we the cutest Trick or Treaters.

Headed off to the houses. I looked at the houses very carefully to make sure we only went to houses with the lights on. I also was very good at limiting the amount of candy I took. Some people would tell me I could take 4 candies, but I said "I just need one". Boy did that make my parents proud.

Pressed the doorbell and waiting patiently.

Saying Trick or Treat with Princess Woo Woo.

How cool is this house?

Matt helps me reach the doorbell.

Headed on to the next house.

Most kids would be scared of the foggy scary house, but not me.

I think Mom was more scared than me.

Headed to a house with Dad. It was really cool to have so many people go Trick or Treating with me, I got to pick someone to go with me to each house.

A few houses left bins of candy out at the door. (This is one of the reasons we love Trick or Treating in this neighborhood, notice how the bowl is still full......this would not happen in many neighborhoods, but all the other kids were very respectful and only took their share). My Mom was super proud when I left because I took my one bag of pretzels and when I was ready to move on to the next house I said "Thank you house".

Hope everyone had as great of a Halloween as I did. It was very magical. I loved spending time with my family and meeting new friends......and getting candy, toy spiders and stickers. I was excellent at saying Trick or Treat, Please and Thank You, I think my Mom and Dad were real proud. I walked very far and was a trooper all the way back to Sharon and Jim's house (at the end I required Dad to hold me, and after a few houses he threw me up in the air to make me laugh, I think he regretted this later as his arms were killing him at the end). I was really surprised that Mom and Baby Reed were able to make it around the neighborhood too, even if they did waddle a lot. Happy Halloween....I can't wait to Trick or Treat next year, who knows maybe we will even bring Baby Reed.

My Batman Cupcake

My Mom surprised Dad and I with some cupcakes from Sprinkles. Can you guess which one is for me?
Yep, the Batman cupcake.

Cupcake inspection.

Yep, it passed the test.

Yea for cupcakes. I think Dad liked his Strawberry one, he ate it all and forgot to share. Silly Dad.

Sunday - Getting ready for Halloween

Another day, another special project. Dad and I are getting the house all festive for Halloween.
Hammers ready, now we are ready to decorate.

Most people put out Halloween decorations only, but Dad and I have some football decorations to put up too. Go Broncos. Hugs and kisses for the Broncos tree.

Rusty got into it too. I guess he loves the Broncos as much as Dad and I do.

Grammie sent me a special Batman pumpkin decorating kit. I was so excited to decorate my birthday pumpkin with Batman.

Me and my favorite pumpkin.

Time to run around the neighborhood.

Come on Dad...faster.

Once I got home I wasn't quite convinced that it was nap time, but Mom and Dad said it was. I tried my hardest to stay awake, but finally fell asleep on the stairs.

My Mom and Dad worried about me sleeping on the stairs, so Dad decided he needed to put me to bed.

I guess I looked super snuggly as daddy put me in the big bed and snuggled with me and Batman. What a weekend.....I worked so hard that I need another weekend to recover.

Toy Story 3-D!

This morning, Mom and Dad told me we could finally go to the movies to see Woody and Buzz (the Toy Story double feature). I picked out Peanut M&M's as my special movie candy. I was so excited I held them in the car even though we had to go to breakfast first. We had pancakes at Bayley's Cafe in Grapevine and for the first time ever I finished my whole meal. My Mom and Dad told me they ordered me Batman pancakes. They looked like regular chocolate chip pancakes to me, but I might have eaten more with the Batman moniker...they were delicious.

Here I am in the car headed to breakfast. Like my Broncos hat? Pop-Pop got it for me in Denver.
Playing with Woody in Southlake Town Square before the movie.
Mom got me some pennies to throw in the fountain.....it's one of the many activities that makes fountains so cool.

Action shot of wish making.

Woody and Buzz playing at the fountain. Dad was holding Buzz.

Playing on the bench with Dad.....is it movie time yet?

I guess I will have to put on a little puppet show until movie time.

Woody, Buzz, Dad and I walking to the movie theatre.

Yea!! It's movie time. Mom got me popcorn and lemonade. I shared some popcorn with Woody.

Dad models the 3-D glasses, silly Dad must not have known that you don't put them on until movie time.

Watching my movie.

Come on Mom and Dad, stop with the camera, the movie is starting. Thank goodness there weren't other people in the theatre since we went so early.

The ticket-taker said I could keep my glasses, here I am rocking the shades in the car.

Once I got home it was nap time. I was exhausted after watching two full movies. When I woke up, Dad said he had a special project for me. We got our tools and headed upstairs.

We are going to make a crib for Reed.

I got my special tools and a hat like Woody, now I'm ready to make the crib.

Dad helped too.

Caution: Men at Work.

We are very serious workers.

Finished product, now we just need Reed.
