Trick or Treat!
October 31, 2007: Ellee's first real trick or treating experience.
This year I got to take my cute little ducky out to show off to all the neighbors (also ward members, so they appreciated the cuteness even more!). And after the first house, she sure knew exactly what to do.
The first house, next door neighbors Frank and Margie. They were great! They opened the door looked at me, then looked down and instantly had the happiest face I've seen in a long time on. They put the candy basket in front of Ellee and she knew just want to do, like she's been doing this for ages. She picked out the perfect piece, then turned around and walked away! Off to the next house please!
Next up, the Davis's. She was proudly carrying her tootsie roll around with her, that is until the Davis's put their basket in front of her. She then traded out her tootsie roll for a snickers... good job! But then the Davis's showed her that she could hold onto both! And boy, that was sure fun! She then proceeded to put both pieces in her ghosty candy pail making both hands available for more candy.
We proceeded through the neighbor in a similar manner. Doorbell, candy, smile for the occasional picture, wave bye, waddle off. It was quiet darling if I do say so myself! My favorite thing was at a few of the houses, when they opened the door and didn't have a basket of candy right there for her, she would walk right into their house and take a look around. Then wave bye as she made her way out.
She was a ducky on a mission, a candy mission.
And this is one cute chick!
Mission completed.
