Happy "How-da-ween"

I am pretty sure Lexie was in hog heaven. Not only did she get to dress up as Dora, but she did it 3 days in a row! She had her Social Butterflies party on Friday, trick or treat Saturday, and our neighborhood 'parade'--thanks to the weather--on Sunday. The costume was a huge hit...thanks so much to the Kadusons who generously gave us the outfit!!!

Shortly after Russ got home from work, we headed over to our wonderful neighbor's, the Egans to wish Al a happy birthday and take the kids trick or treating. We didn't venture too far from home (just did the little loop) but we made it to a few houses before the weather decided not to cooperate again. We were better off anyways...we didn't need a bunch of candy around the house...especially since we don't give it to Lexie very often!


Here is "Dr. Adams" all dressed up and ready to go! (Looks as though this potential future doctor isn't thrilled about the health care reform!!!)
"Dr. Adams" and her daddy ready to go trick or treating!
She just LOVES her daddy!
Sadie, our neighbor, makes the CUTEST little chicken!!!
Cole wanted to be a SPOOKY ghost...he is too cute to be spooky though!
Russ relaxing with the girls after trick or treating.


After trick or treating, Lexie took her Dora wig off and let her hair down...well part of it at least...and wanted us all to sing along with her. Click on the video below!!!



The next day was our big neighborhood parade. Most of the kids in the neighborhood met at the "main intersection" where we followed the biggest kid of all...REGE. Yes, the grand marshal of the parade was our wonderful neighbor Regis. He dressed up as a witch and led the parade on his quad! Such fun neighbors we have!

Sadly Lexie did not wear her Dora wig to the parade. It was all I could do to get her dressed in her costume and out the door...she took a 3 and a half hour nap that day...I literally had to wake her up to go!!!! I am so glad we did...she had such a great time!
The grand poobah--Mr. Rege!
