Halloween before Rome

I need to post Rome pictures, but they are all on Ray's computer. I do, however, have some halloween pictures. Note to self: do not go on a vacation out of the country and come back the day before Halloween. Not only had we not gotten a pumpkin, I did not have a costume for Ariel. So yesterday we scrounged out the rest of Ariel's cat costume and today, after two grocery stores were completely devoid of pumpkins, we found one at Potomac Vegetable Farms' stand on 7. We also picked up some of the best cider I have ever had. yum! So here are some pictures!!!


OK. These pictures are backwards, oops. I don't feel like changing them. This is their loot. They made buckets for candy with grandma and Aunt Mary while we were in Rome. We hit our entire neighborhood and they filled the buckets to the brim.


Starting out down the street. They ran right up to the doors, even miss shy Ariel. I would stand on the sidewalk, they would knock and yell TRICK OR TREAT! It was very cute.


Getting some candy from our neighbours.


Ariel the kitty cat. We got the cat ears at Michaels and the dress was the last one at Target and was thankfully in her size.


Ariel the kitty, Rachael was Cinderella, and Trevor was a skeleton pirate from Pirates of the Carribean.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
