Trick or treating

As we took Cecily (and the other two) trick-or-treating on Halloween, I told Steve that Cecily probably thought this was the best night of her life. She got to dress up as one of her favorite characters ALL DAY and now we were going to people's houses and they were just HANDING her candy. She couldn't run to the next house fast enough. After her bag got so heavy she couldn't carry it, Steve held it for her and she had people hand her candy at their doors. EVERY TIME someone handed her a piece of candy, she would flip around, hold it high above her head and make her "Look at this! I am so surprised!" face. She LOVED it. Every night for the last week, her bedtime prayers have started like this: "Heavenly Father, Thankful for Halloween. Thankful of all the candy for the people." (Meaning "from the people.") Her enthusiasm for life is my favorite thing about Cecily. Love that turkey.

Last Saturday, we drove up to Layton to watch cousin Meg's first gymnastics meet. It was fun to spend time with the cousins and eat good food.

Yes, Cecily considers Mac N Cheese good food. But we also had Dickey's BBQ, which in my opinion was way better. :) Thanks Nick and Wilda for the good eats and the Nelsons for hosting us!
