Trick or Treat!

What an awesome day! I got tons of cool things trick or treating around campus with my preschool friends in the morning. Then Mom, Dad and I went trick or treating to a few houses around the neighborhood. I used my talker to say "trick or treat." Mom made the button on my device huge so I didn't even have to look close to find the right spot to push. Good thing she did this because there was soooo much to look at tonight. Having to look down and study my talker would have really put a damper on the night! The neighbors across the street went all out in their decorating and had a haunted house in the front yard so there were all kinds of people to watch. The women's basketball team, who I just adore, were across the street. They had gone trick or treating for change to give to the Make A Wish Foundation. Then it was time to hand out treats. The weather was beautiful and with so much activity outside, there was no way I was watching it from inside the house. Instead, Mom and I sat on the front porch and handed out treats. One at a time, I would pick out a piece of candy and wait very patiently for the next trick or treater. Then I would toss it into their bag. After awhile, I started to get a little picky about who I wanted to give the candy to. I fooled alot of kids into thinking I was going to put the candy in their bag, only to pull my hand back at the last second as I decided to give it to someone else instead....or just keep it for myself! A couple of guys left their treat bags exposed just a little to long so I decided to check out what candy they already had gotten. Boy were they surprised when I was taking candy out instead of putting candy in! The night ended perfectly with a visit from Mary, my all time favorite basketball player! But now...this witch has to hit the hay...I'm tired! I'll leave you with this video of me handing out candy!
