Our Little Electrician

This year Amelia went trick-or-treating as a mini electrician or as Amelia calls her daddy "lectrician." She was already to go: pink hardhat, pink tool belt and a McLean Electric t-shirt.


Posing with the pumpkins, a must every year.


Saying "cheese" for the camera.


This was our first year going door to door and I was real curious how it was going to go...well she loved it especially when she realized she was receiving candy. The door wouldn't even be closed and she was barely turned around before she was asking "do it again?" She was real polite saying thank you after receiving her treat.


As we were walking down the street, Spencer holding on to Amelia's hand, we were quickly thrown back to our days of trick-or-treating. The sound and smell of the leaves as we were walking through them, the other kids on the street, the candle lit pumpkins...the simple days of being a child. Spencer and I really had such a great time. It was just the three of us walking that Halloween night, but it was neat knowing we were starting a tradition with our little girl that we will carry on as long as we can.


At the end of the night, nothing beats unbuttoning your pants because of all of the candy eaten (or in Amelia's case completely losing them) and strolling around the house in your shirt and cowboy boots. She did remember her manners and was sure to throw the candy wrappers away.
