Trick Or Treat?!?! Treat - Of Course!

Ella Kate's first Halloween was quite an adventure! Daddy had to work, but Titi Coco came to hang out and help pass out candy. Ella Kate was an absolute angel, save one meltdown when she realized she had to wear a hood as part of her costume. Check back soon for more videos!

Ella Kate dressed up as a pretty panda bear.


Have you ever seen a cuter panda bottom?


She spent at least five minutes watching neighbors walk past our house on the way to the neighborhood festival. She waved at them all as they passed.


We finally made it to the stroller, ready to walk to the festival. Suddenly, Ella Kate realized that her costume had a HOOD!


We walked about 200 feet and saw Titi Coco driving down the street.


One look at Coco and all was right in the world again. She adores her Aunt Edna!


We finally made it to the festival and what did we find?!?! Another animal from the zoo! Our neighbor, Simon, posed for pictures with us.


On the way home, we stopped by Ms. Kim's house for some trick-or-treating! She was loved and hugged and held for 15 minutes. We told her not to expect that kind of attention at all the houses!


Her face cracks me up in this picture. It's almost as if she's wondering if Mom will actually let her eat that candy. (No, she won't!)


After the festival, all good little pandas had to munch on bamboo to regain their strength. There was lots of candy to give to other trick-or-treaters!


We spread a blanket on the front lawn to pass out candy. We had a space heater on the porch keeping us warm and cozy.


A quick night-time snuggle.


We proudly fly our Bama flag during football season, so the other Bama fans know exactly what to say to get extra candy! How did the dinosaurs become extinct if they were this smart?

(That's "Roll Tide Roll" under a hood.)

After a long day, with only one nap, it's time for night-night.

Ella Kate, I am so glad you had a good time with your first Treat or Treat. You are the cutest(and only) little panda I saw this year. Hope everyone is feeling better. Love, Gigi

I didn't see any panda's either. Go EK for being original. I certainly didn't see any other girls as cute as EK.

Remind me to upload Moseley doing his rendition of "Roll Tide" It doesn't exactly get him candy (um, war eagle, anyone?) but it's still cute.
