Our Little Lamb

Halloween was a lot of fun this year! Corinne really got into trick or treating, and loved watching all of the older kids in their costumes. She even got to eat some candy and stay up late (thanks, daylight savings). She was actually too tall for her lamb costume, but we made it work for one night. Never mind the snaps that kept coming undone during the evening! The pictures below tell some of the story from tonight. In her short life Corinne has gotten to know a lot of the neighborhood kids and was waving to one, in particular, here.
This was Corinne's "smile" for the camera before heading out.

And she never looked back!

Little C. knew just what to do with the "desserts" in her pumpkin purse. She wasted no time in picking out her first piece. Another highlight of the evening for C. was seeing the full moon up in the sky. She LOVES the moon and stars!
After conquering many steps and steep driveways, Corinne came back to home base to enjoy a second piece of candy...a sucker.

A chair, a sucker and people watching. Corinne was quite content! And example #1 of the too-small Halloween costume.

Our pumpkins worked nicely for taking a rest as well! Still working on the sucker...

Whew! What a night! This is post-trick or treating, and pre-bedtime. By this time Little C. was getting a little silly while Pop Pop and Lynn were visiting!

Great photos and narrative! Corinne is of course completely adorable as a little lamb (cute cute cute!).

I bet she loved walking around the neighborhood, up and down the driveways, and seeing all the activity. And no doubt she caught on very quickly that people were giving her CANDY! Is she getting any help eating all of her loot?

Love,
Aunt Marce

Corinne was the cutest trick or treater who came to 1334 Suncrest! Her sweet little personality shines brightly, in or out of costume. Of course that is objectively speaking (not)!

love, Mimi
