Trick-or-Treat

Greg and I took Lucy and Ella to see the movie Up earlier this year when it was in the theaters. They both loved it, and Ella instantly became infatuated with Russell, the boy scout character. Her love for him continued, and she asked if she could be Russell for Halloween. We, of course, said yes. Lucy then decided that she should be Carl, the old man in the movie. Hilarious! We all agreed that Audrey would make an adorable Dug, the funny dog.

Lucy really got into character...she made her "old man face," talked in a gruff voice, and came up with a Carl walk. She moved slowly and went "step, cane, step, " and took these little steps...sooo funny!

We printed out and made a model of the house from the movie, and the girls had balloons...unfortunately, it was a SUPER windy day and the balloons were out of control. They were really cute, though.

After handing out candy at our house, we trick-or-treated at Julie and Patrick's house.

Dug slept most of the day.

From Julie and Patrick's, we headed to Brookfield to trick-or-treat with Kristi, Dan, Chloe, and family.

Kristi's mom, Jo, was sweet enough to push the stroller and deal with the balloons...thanks again, Jo!

We saw some great Halloween decorations and had tons of fun walking around, but it got pretty cold. We ate at Qdoba for dinner...yum!

Afer dinner we hung out at the Simeks' house...thanks for a wonderful night, guys!
