Trick or Treat Smell My Feet...

Hope everyone had a nice Halloween. I was battling a cold, but I powered through and went trick or treating with an adorable pink octopus and a very cute Buzz Lightyear. Our octopus had no clue what was going on. She was beating herself on the head with her extra arms. She loved the trick or treaters and Halloween lights. Buzz was very excited this year. He finally "got" what Halloween was all about - candy and more candy! He also loved his new saying - which he said all weekend...trick or treat smell my feet! Ah...gotta love pre-school where they learn all kinds of fun things!
