We took the kids trick-or-treating for the first time last night. Basically we just walked one block over and went up and down the street, then back home. I told them afterwards that I have been waiting a very, very long time for this night and how happy I was it had arrived, sticky candy fingers and all. And it's true. They picked up "trick or treat" fairly quickly and also said "thank you" a lot. Seeing other kids in costume was very exciting, and, of course, "candy!" The only hitch was that they didn't want to walk. Next year we may resort to a wagon. My arms are tired.

I had to paint April's face after doing Simone's. So I enhanced her eyebrows and put a dot on her nose.

April yelled at me every time I gave away candy at the door. Heh.
