Trunk or Treat

 Last year for Halloween we dressed up as this...
In case you can't tell, Camilla is in the box thing.


We dressed our baby up as a mummy!!

Since Halloween was on a Sunday this year, we celebrated on Saturday night with a Trunk or Treat.  It was a lot of fun! Camilla was a little cow, and we were farmers.  We had no luck finding overalls at Value Village, so we improvised with whatever we could find at home.  It was so fun to dress up as a family and celebrate the holiday.  Camilla was the cutest little cow.  She could say "moo", "cheats" (treats), "ank-you" (thank-you).  She was cute!  Here's some pictures of our night!!  It's too bad you can't see her feet in these first pictures, because she's only wearing one sock!

"Mum, are you DONE yet?"
This is TOTALLY a Stannix pose.  I'm pretty sure I have a Halloween pic of Mr. Stannix when he was around this age, and his shoulders, facial expression and almost everything are the same.  So cute.

She even had a little tail that would wag as she walked.  

She would say "Moo" when asked what she was.  She was little miss independent as soon as we got to the church.  She walked around, checked out the kids and their costumes, and played with balloons.  I must say though, Mr. Stannix makes a pretty hunky cow boy!! 

Camilla met her little friend in the gym.  When she saw her she went "Roar" and ran up to her.  Her friend said "Moo".  It was funny watching them interact and chat with each other.  They were adorable!

After all the fun was done in the gym, the kids made their way out to the parking lot for the Trunk or Treat!  Camilla had a blast.  Her Daddy took her around from car to car.  She would say "cheat" and hold out her little bucket.  Then we would prompt her to say "thank-you" and she would go "ank-you" or something that would sound close, and move onto the next car.  We only went to about 5 cars and then she kept tripping and spilling her bucket, so we thought it was time to call it a night.  


When we got home, she stripped out of her costume and went for the "cheats".  She had a blast examining her loot before bed!  She would take it all out of her bucket, inspect it, play with it, and then put it all back in.  She was adorable.  I loved seeing how excited she was!
