A Spooktacular Affair to Remember

This weekend the Barr house had lots of fun getting ready for tonight's big event... TRICK OR TREATING!  Cousin Jessica came over and helped Haddie and I carve pumpkins.  Well, let's be honest, cousin Jessica carved our pumpkins while Haddie and I rode our bikes, played with sidewalk chalk and kicked the ball around.   Thank you cousin Jessica :-).  

Today at school, Mom and Dad came to watch Haddie and I at our school parade and then we got to have a fun Halloween party afterwards that consisted of lots of sugar!  Needless to say, Mom wasn't much thrilled with that part.  At any rate, we had fun and went home to rest before the main event.  That's right folks, what I missed out on last year, I made up for this year.   Cousin Jessica, Daddy and I went trick or treating in our neighborhood.  There were lots of scary decorated houses, lots of kids, and most of all lots of treats!   Haddie is what I consider a "light weight" so she didn't come with us.... in fact, she was in bed before we even left the house.   Mom stayed behind to watch Haddie and Bob our cat ...oh and give out candy too :-).

Overall, I have to say that this years Halloween festivities was a huge success for the Barr family.   Haddie looked adorable in the Strawberry costume that I picked out for her and Mom finally wised up (after already buying two other Halloween costumes) and let me pick out my own costume... Chuck the Truck ... which we all know rocks! 

I hope your Halloween was a spooktacular as ours!

Love,
Emerson & Haddie


"Seriously Jessica, you think Mom is going to let us do that?"

 "Mom, do they make shirts with an XL size for the head?"
 "Haddie, here let me show you how it's done"
 "Ha ha.... I got the ball now big brother"
 "Jessica, be very careful.... that knife is sharp"
"Jessica, yep, that looks about right"
"You wanna piece of me!" 

 "hmmmm.... this just isn't as good as the red one"
 "Dad, put down the phone and lets boogie"
 "For real Mom, we've got places to go"
 "TA DA!!!!"
 "Here she is... Miss Strawberry herself"
 "This lollipop... it's all I'll ever need"
 "mmmm.... Cheetos, juice box, cookies.. (is Nana close by :)
 "Can we go yet?"
 "check out my loot"
" A perfect ending <3"
