this little piggy...

Friday night was the ward Trunk or Treat and Sophie's first appearance as Piglet (thanks Ann for letting us borrow the costume). I thought she made an exceptional Piglet, of course.


Sorry there's so many pictures, I have a hard time choosing sometimes. I had to throw in the pictures of Tinkerbell and the lost boy, just too cute to ignore. Their parents were Hook and Peter Pan, some day I hope to coordinate our family costumes as well... someday.

There was a big pile of leaves which I thought was a perfect place for pictures while Sophie thought it was perfect for playing. Dan found her tail to be useful for holding her in place while he "de-leafed" her for the up-teenth time. I think a tail would come in handy, maybe we should try and find a more permanent tail-like appendage to add to Sophie's back-side. :)

Sophie was a little bewildered by the trick or treating idea at first but caught on quickly, she didn't know why everyone wanted to give her candy but she didn't care!! She was quite attached to her pumpkin bucket prior to the event but after it was filled with candy they were inseparable. She had to hold it all the time and if I offered to hold it for her she would run away. I couldn't get her to say trick or treat, she would just say, "cany pease!" Which got the job done anyhow.

A new addition to the party this year was games and food inside the church. Sophie enjoyed her pumpkin balloon we made for her. Which, unfortunately, didn't make it home with us due to an unfortunate slip of the hand in the parking lot. Sophie was fine with her candy-filled bucket to console her. I was all about the home-made root beer, mmmmm... my favorite.
