For Halloween, Ella was to be Fancy Nancy. We ordered her birthday outfit with Halloween in mind. Her FN doll has fairy wings and a few weeks ago Ella decided that needed some, too. We borrowed them from our sweet friend, Stevi and Ella looked precious. Unfortunately, she didn’t wear them very long. Walking in wings proved difficult for Ella! We had to add tights and a long sleeved t-shirt to keep this fancy fairy warm and we added a flower to her hair and pretty pink eyeshadow, since Halloween at our house require “face paint”.
Our first stop for trick-or-treating was Granmom and Pop’s. She wasn’t sure about going to the door by herself, but she was so excited for candy. We laughed at her because when we asked what she was supposed to say she almost always responded, “Trick or Treat, give us some candy!” What happened to please?
After G&P’s we headed to our church for the annual Trunk or Treat celebration. There were hotdogs, bounce houses, a hayride and more candy than any street block should contain. She and daddy walked around the circle and got way too many Reese’s Cups!
In case there is a question, SD and I dressed as Fancy Nancy’s parents. You’ve read the book, right? They are very plain :).
Here is Mr. Maddox driving the hayride through the spooky cemetery. Ella asked us what the cemetery was and what was in it. How do you answer that for a three year old?
We wound up home on our couch with lots of candy and a potential tummy ache!
We each ate a few pieces and headed off for bed. Little did we know that mommy would be up at midnight with an awful belly ache. Apparently this baby does not love Reese’s Cups as much as Ella Bella does!
