Lucy dressed up as a ladybug for Halloween this year. I think she was a little bit confused, but got the hang of it quickly. She helped pass out candy to the other kids and we went to a few houses on our block. She learned how to say "trick-or-treat", but was too shy to say it once anyone opened their door. Unfortunately for Lucy, we wouldn't let her actually eat any of her loot. She doesn't know what candy is yet though and she was thrilled to sort the tiny packages and take them in and out (and in and out and in and out) of her pail.
Brian used left over supplies from house projects (the french drain from last summer and the garage door insulation from this fall) to make a very shinny robot costume.
We also checked out Trick or Treat Town here in Anchorage. It was kind of a bust. Super crowded and too expensive. It was a good warm up to the real event though.
