The 3's class was encouraged to dress up for school on Halloween but we had to figure out something that would be easy to wear all day and pull up and down independently. Raelyn already had her super hero cape and mask so I hand-stitched a felt lightening bolt onto a thermal tee and we have Super Raelyn!
Due to bad weather the night of Halloween, Indianapolis postponed trick-or-treating by one day. It turned out great! It was a Friday night and warm enough to walk around the block until dusk. The kids had a blast saying "Trick or Treat" to all of our neighbors and remembered to say "Thank You" at most of the houses without prompting. At several houses Raelyn wanted to stick around to chat. She loved asking, "What's your name?"
She still believes that the neighbor behind us is Mr. McGregor from Peter Rabbit and needed a little encouragement to go up to that door.
We had a great time saying hello to all of our neighbors and watching our kids smile each time a piece of candy was dropped into their bags!

Raelyn and Max, How special is this--trick or treating in your neighborhood where your lights shine to all, even "Mr. McGregor." Love, Gramma
Such cute costumes! ;) Duncan has watched this video about 25 times already.
Raelyn was soooo happy in her Super Raelyn costume. That is one of the best pictures of Raelyn ever! Dad
Max and Raelyn had so much fun trick-or-treating. It was so funny when Rae asked people for their names. How many 3 year olds ask such a question? Max really liked his fireman costume and enjoyed following sissy around the block. Dad
