Halloween Day

As a neighbor and friend pointed out: "Wow, how many costumes does Ella have?"

True, very true. We ended up with multiple costumes for our little girl. She wanted to wear a variety of things this week and actually wore two different ones on Halloween Day itself: One for school and one for trick-or-treating.

The school costume was Super Girl and she looked super cute in it.

For going to the block party and for Trick-or-Treating last night she wanted to be a ballerina and wear one of my old recital costumes when I was about her age. She called herself a ballerina princess and wore the outfit with such pride.

We met a new neighbor at the block party and ended up going house to house with them. The little girl (also 3-years-old), dressed as an elephant, grabbed Carmella's hand and led her up to each door. The pair of them had the best time ever.

Leo went as Tigger, growls and all. Below is a video of him practicing his growl and of sis joining along for the fun of it.
