happy halloween!

Happy Halloween!! Well, we celebrated the spooky holiday
over here in Scotia Land, and I'd say we had quite a good
time. Ireland was a pink poodle this year and it just fit her
little perfectly. She loved her costume. She drug it around
the house constantly, cuddling with it and calling it "my
poodle", it was pretty cute. But she was even cuter all dressed
up...all soft and fuzzy, and the cutest little poodle ever. She
got all dressed up twice, first for the Primary Halloween party
and then for the real deal. The Primary party was awesome.
Lots of yummy food and games and then Ilie got her first real
taste of trunk-or-treating, and she caught on very quickly.
She ran from one car to another saying "tri-treat" and holding
her bag out, then she'd turn around and try to go to the same
car again...hey, she knew what she was doing!!


On the real Halloween day, Ilie got dressed up early and we
took the annual trip to the dental school to go and visit Daddy.
She loves her daddy, and she was really excited to see him and
all her friends dressed up. That night the Young's were brave
enough to have all of us over again for Halloween celebrations.
We ate nummy soups and breads and got ready for some
fabulous trick-or-treating and Ilie was ready to go...she knew
what to expect this time. So the little cuties ran from one door
to another and completely filled their bags after one street
(mostly with chips!) So we emptied and set out for another
round. Ilie was in pure heaven, when else can you go door to
door and get treats, treats, and more treats! But we finally
reached the point when we asked her if she still wanted to
trick-or-treat, and she said "uh-uh" (translated: no!), so we
headed home. And that was the great Redd Halloween adventure.
