My Little Mousekateer & Her Pumpkin!

Liliah loves Mickey & Minnie Mouse.  She talks about them daily for the past 6 months.  We had so much fun dressing her up as Minnie....and I must say, I think she looks the part!!

This was Liliah's first trick or treating experience.  Last year she was in the hospital recovering from her palette surgery. 



Minnie & her "Pluto" just before trick or treating



And we're off . . .
She had so much fun saying trick or treat, gettin' some stash and happily saying Happy Halloween as we went from house to house.  She wasn't afraid and even said, Liliah likes ghosts (what?)  It brought such joy to my heart and was so fun watching her in this new experience and enjoying herself. 

Her first choice of candy from her bucket was a tootsie pop.

My first pumpkin!  At first, I didn't want to get my hands in that stuff....then I caught on and liked it

A spoon is much better though . . .
Finished product.....good job Daddy!
