It came! And it was so much fun.

Lucy had an amazing time trick-or-treating. We walked to a local shopping center and went to our favorite restaurants and coffee shop. There were TONS of kids out and it was really cute to see them all running around so excited.

Like every good diva, Lucy does a costume change at any big event. At Christmas, Easter and her birthday there is always a wardrobe switch, just like Beyoncé. Don't worry, I'm not going to get all Toddlers and Tiaras. We're just the happy recipients of generous family and friends who like to shower Lucy with clothes and we need to show them off, duh!

This adorable outfit was whipped up by my Mom. What, sew something amazing in the blink of an eye? No biggie. Amazing.

I was also excited that, for the first time in a few years, I got to stay home and carve pumpkins. I have wanted to make polka dot pumpkins ever since seeing a design by Martha years ago. She used a fancy dremel tool. I just used an apple corer and it was super easy. Although, as I stabbed away, my husband, Dave, asked every 10 minutes, "Are you being careful? Are you being careful? Really, are you being careful?"

The rest of the evening was spent relaxing with the fam, eating pizza and waiting for the trick-or-treaters that never really came.

Oh well! At least we got to eat plenty of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and enjoy the ambiance.
