Hollowed Days

We didn't actually go trick-or-treating tonight, our week was already full enough with activities, and we had plenty of candy, especially now with the left overs since we only had 5 trick-or-treaters.  And to start it off right, Anna was spooked by the first two kids, who were dressed as Freddy Krueger and the Scream mask ghost.  Hopefully we don't have any nightmares!
After a couple of other ideas, Maria decided on Madeline for her costume.  I have to say, it turned out pretty cute!  She happened to have the dress, and I found the hat for $1.50 at the thrift store, not too bad, huh?
Last weekend we went to a church Fall Fest, and the girls had a great time.  Then later in the week Maria went trick-or-treating with preschool, and finally on Friday we headed to the library for their party.  SO by the time Sunday rolled around, we I was done.  Anna dressed up as Genevieve, the dog that is in the Madeline series.  We just used some brown clothes that we had, and gave her a leash.

In an old house in Paris that was covered with vines
lived twelve little girls in two straight lines
They left the house at half past nine
The smallest one was Madeleline
