Halloween

We had a fun Halloween this year.  Olivia was a mermaid.  The night before Halloween she told us she needed a red wig.  I said no, but Matt said yes and off they went to a local Halloween pop up shop.  She came home with the cutest red wig and I was once again reminded that basically Olivia knows best ;)

On the weekend before Halloween we enjoyed the Rodriguez's annual Halloween party

And a Fall Festival at Westside

On Halloween, Olivia had a little parade at her school.  I was so happy we were able to attend and take Eric!

After we left, her class had a Halloween party

That night was unfortunately pretty rainy, but we packed up and found a perfect little window between the rain (and the big Astros game) for a little trick-or-treating

And once the rain started (and the Astros) we came home and put our little pumpkin to bed. 

Meanwhile, the mermaid was happy to just hand out candy to all kids - though she was very adamant that we needed a note over the doorbell to protect her sleeping brother...
