Last Minute Shopping For Halloween Outfit ( Momimhar posted on November 3rd, 2014 )

Oh wow! It’s already November again. Happy belated Halloween everyone. I got very busy last few days. My darling daughter and I went to the Boo on Ballard 2014 in Wylie, Texas Thursday of last week.  I didn’t get to take photos because my cellphone was low battery.  And we got there an hour before the event was over at 8:00 P.M.  In addition, I had a hard time finding a parking spot because the parking lot in Downtown Wylie was very full.  Good thing somebody was leaving so I quickly took his place.

We didn’t have theme costume for Halloween this year.  I was thinking of wearing something from a fairytale character like a fairy because my little one liked to wear Princess Aurora gown at first.  But she changed her mind.  She wanted to wear the wolf mask that we bought from Walmart last month.  Few weeks before the Boo on Ballard event and the trick or treat evening, I asked her a few times what she wanted to wear on Halloween.  She insisted to wear the wolf mask.  So I had to look for a dark gray toddler outfit.  I thought of a gray pants and a pull-over jacket.  As soon as I got off work one evening, my darling daughter and I went to a department store to look and buy an outfit for her.  Luckily I saw a pair of dark gray toddler pull-over and pants set.  And I found her size too!  They were perfect match for my DD’s wolf mask.

Darling Daughter’s First Halloween Costume Party 2013 ( Momimhar posted on November 6th, 2013 )

I think darling daughter had a great time at the Halloween Party at a friend’s house last Friday.  This is her very first Halloween Party she attended with me.  My cousin and her kids came with us, too.  It’s a costume party so we were in our cutest Halloween costumes.  First costume DD picked to wear for the occasion was the outfit of Jewel in Lalaloopsy.  But she saw a bumble bee costume at Walmart so I bought that.  She wore that costume at the Boo!  In Ballard Halloween Event in downtown Wylie.  I thought I would incorporate our costumes together.  But I couldn’t find a lady bug costume that fits me.  So I decided to find one that will give us a theme.  I found this Dainty Pirate costume for kids size 10-12.  It fits me very well.  Then I found the Pirate Princess costume for DD at a garage sale size 3T-4T.  Perfect!

The party was a potluck style so everyone brought a dish to share.  I broiled whole chicken.  Others brought some brisket, garden salad, fried fish, veggies stir-fry, and variation of dessert.  Since there will be kids at the party, I volunteered to be assigned with the Halloween games for kids.  The Halloween games I got online include:  Guess What’s In The Bag, The Mummy Game, Guess How Many, and Freeze Dance.  The kids had a great time.

We left the party two hours before darling daughter’s bedtime so we still had lots of time doing our bedtime routine without rushing.

Halloween 2013 – Pirate Princess ( Momimhar posted on November 5th, 2013 )

Okay, so here’s the photo of our lighted carved pumpkin.  My darling daughter was so fascinated about it that she wanted to take the pumpkin to Trick or Treat.  Silly girl.  *chuckles*

As I mentioned, DD didn’t wear her Lalaloopsy costume.  I looked, found, and bought a Princess Pirate costume instead because she is also interested with pirates.  She likes watching Jake and the Neverland Pirates on Disney Junior.  And when she saw this Princess Pirate Halloween costume, she got very excited.

We went Trick or Treat in our neighborhood Wednesday night.  My husband and I thought we’re the only household that has treats that evening because it was already past six o’clock in the evening and no one had come by yet.  So we decided to take DD for Trick or Treat at the neighbors’.  Because it’s already dark at 6:00 P.M., we took a flashlight with us so we can see where we’re going and people will see us too.  We knock at the door the first house we saw with the porch lights on.  Actually, they are our new neighbors.  The mom gave DD a couple of candies.  She said the candies were from Mexico.

Excited to know how much treats she got.

As we continued, we met a couple of neighbor kids and their parents.  I learned that there’s not much houses to go for Trick or Treat.  Honestly, that’s disappointing.  Well, I thought it’s because Halloween is a weekday.  But someone told my husband that most neighbors don’t have young kids anymore.  So what?  There are trick or treaters from other neighborhoods who come for it so why not join?  Anyway, whatever reason they have, we understand.  But kids look forward to this occasion, too.

Like the usual, DD started to do some inventory of the treat she got as soon as we got home.  She was so happy to see a Halloween pencil and M&Ms in her bucket.
