Trick or Treat

Last year on Halloween, Eric and I were getting off the plane in Taiwan. We were a little sad that Lexie would be missing out on Halloween, but so happy to finally be in the same country as our daughter. We were so excited for this Halloween to come along because it means the start of holiday festivities.

Also, the stars and the planets were aligned just perfectly for Lexie. It had rained all week and Sunday morning, the sun was shining. It was clear skies and a beautiful night for trick or treating.

Our strawberry fairy princess was excited to go out with her older cousins. She was such a big girl and walked the whole time in her little boots.
She kind of said "trick or treat" a few times. And was in awe when people gave her candy, but was in absolute heaven when one person opened a cooler and she got to choose an ice cold can of juice. After that, Lexie ditched her wand and treat bag and only wanted to hold on to that can. Here she is with her cousin Reyn. He was trying to help Lexie and show her where to go.
Thank you to our wonderful family for all of the gifts and treats. You really made Lexie's first Halloween a night to remember.
After everyone went home, it started to rain and it rained throughout the night and most of Monday. Someone must have been looking out for Lexie because we could not have asked for a more perfect Halloween for Lexie.
