We went trick or treating in our neighborhood this year on Halloween! It was a lot of fun. Aidan was supposed to be Reepicheep, the valiant mouse from The Chronicles of Narnia, but Mommy couldn't find his sword. So he was just a plain old 3 foot tall talking mouse. Imogene was a beautiful princess. She picked the colors for her tutu ball gown. Turns out that ball gowns are not ideal for trick or treating. Especially when every house in your neighborhood has stairs and it has been raining. I was a dragon. I was not expecting to go, but Daddy really wanted to take me. Mommy didn't think the dragon costume would fit me, but as you can see, she was wrong. I fell asleep after the first house. I knew they wouldn't let me have candy anyway, so what was the point? Imogene wanted to trick or treat until her whole bucket was full. Mommy told her that was hardly necessary. Aidan was happy to stop after he realized a few houses in that he had Milk Duds in his bag. He could have stopped then and been very happy. In the end, we did the rounds in our neighborhood only, then returned home. I think I'll have more fun next year when they'll let me eat some of the candy! I was a pretty cute dragon, no?- Emery
