trick or treat

today was anna's last day of school. we were all so sad. she gave hugs to all of the kids in her class before we left. her teacher said she would miss her sweet little "anna ruth" so much. (her teacher's name is miss ruth). during school all of the kids were so excited about halloween. one little girl named casey said that she prayed and prayed that halloween would come. lol! they must have talked about trick-or-treating too, because anna couldn't wait to get started tonight. she had never gone trick-or-treating before. so we went to the first house, and even though the porch light was on they didn't have any candy. we went to the second house, a man answered and gave anna a piece of eyeball candy, and that was it. she was so freaked out. bless her heart! so we headed to the zoo boo at the san antonio zoo instead. we had a blast. the event was sponsered by a large number of companies that all contributed TONS of candy. the zoo sponsered games for the little kids too. poor little ella. this whole day was just too much for her. she was so excited that she couldn't nap this afternoon. so then she was so exhausted tonight. i think she had a fun time, though. she wasn't very cooperative for pictures, though. so i got a few of anna and just one of my little sleeping beauty. the dark one is a picture of anna peeking through a glow in the dark ball. i tried using the manual settings on my camera, but there wasn't enough light for her face. hope everyone had a very happy halloween!

I'm disappointed in your neighbors! But, as always you found a way to make it all OK. I love the picture of the little sleeping princess!

How adorable are the girls!?!?! Things were sorta quiet over here, we didn't have near as many trick or treaters. Come to my house, I've got plenty of left overs!!
