Halloween

This year for Halloween Morgan decided to be Minnie Mouse. This is a decision that by no means came quickly and without first trying to negotiate.  She was quite sure that she could be at least 2-3 different things given the various events, i.e. school party, trick or treating, etc - so why not an outfit for each? 

Ariel had a strong place in the running, but ultimately Minnie Mouse won this year. And, I think it was a fabulous choice for her.

She really enjoyed her school party, trick-or-treating was another story.  In early afternoon we started at an indoor safe trick or treat (this was our first and it definitely sterilizes the whole fun of it a bit). In any event, she chose not to take candy from any of the men instead making me hold the bag at the stations where men were the distributors. In her defense, most were older and in costume, and well, old men in costumes often = creepy.

On our way out a mom chased after us asking for a picture (her two-year old twin girls wanted a picture with Minnie Mouse). Well, this Minnie Mouse happened to be a four-year-old without a nap, so she turned away, gave her infamous Morgan scowl, and said NO. Minnie Morgan Mouse was not granting photog moments today.

She finished off with some trick-or-treating around the neighborhood (my parent's to be exact) and was VERY choosy about which house she would go to. She visited just a couple, but the area sees few children so each house offered LARGE candy bars - making one house the equivalent of at least 10 small candy ones. :-)
