Happy Halloween!!!

Happy Halloween from Lucy the Butterfly and Michael Phelps! All in all, it was a very successful Halloween this year. For the first time ever, Max went Trick or Treating...I was so proud of our little man...he has a very strong fear of anyone in costume...which means every other Halloween has been spent watching TV in the basement. This year, though, he went to three cul-de-sacs...it seems silly, but it really warmed my heart to see him so happy during a normal kid activity. Lucy had no problem going up to complete strangers and asking for food...the hardest part of the night for her was not eating the candy the minute someone gave it to her! Lucy, Gram and PopPop also joined me at Max's school for the parade this afternoon...everyone had a great time watching Max play with his friends.
