Trick or Treat?

We went to CB this weekend to visit Brian's family. We brought the girls' Halloween costumes since they won't get to see the girls on Halloween night. Grace didn't want to wear her costume but we managed to convince her to put it on a couple times. We went trick-or-treating aunt Great Aunt Yvonne's house and the girls got some chips and candy. We went to Memé and Pepé's house for lunch and Grace agreed to put her costume on again. Grand Memé gave Grace some new jammies and a coloring book. Grace looked at her gift and said "this is not a treat!!" She looked like she was about to cry but Grand Memé saved the day by giving her a little box of Smarties. I think that's the tough thing about Halloween - we strive to make sure Grace (and Anna) know that Christmas is not just about presents, but Halloween is pretty much just about dressing up and getting candy! At least she's really good about saying thank you (usually!)
