Snow White
One hour before we went trick-or-treating, Tara was in her Snow White costume with glitter shoes. She wanted her hair up. We had been prepping her for this big night, taking her to costume shops to get used to scary masks and creepy creatures. It worked. She didn't scream at all.
She sat in the wagon for a while, getting up at each driveway and trotting to the doors. Then she decided to just put her bag of goodies into the wagon between stops, and jogged alongside her brother and his friends.
She kept up! Tara got just as much candy as the big kids. She tripped a few times in the grass, got back up and kept going. Once, she fell face-down on the pavement. A little trickle of blood seeped through her pink tights. Oh no! We were worried the night was over. But she was more concerned about her candy sprawled in front of her. I quickly gathered it all up and put it in her ghost bucket. I asked if she was ok. Yes, she said, and kept running to catch up to Austin.
More pics are posted in the album.

Posted by: sally at November 2, 2005 11:53 AMTara liked the scary costumes? When you were here, Mike put on that big gorilla head and Tara screamed at him "NO!" Austin thought it was funny, but we turned it around so it wouldn't scare her anymore. But then again, Austin wouldn't sleep all night with that life size rubber hand in the same room...
