Halloween

Olivia had been talking about her Halloween costume since last year. Her costume plans were ever changing. They ranged from a scuba diver to Tinker Bell, but when it was time to make a final decision, she told me she wanted to be a bride. It turns out it is very hard to find a bride costume for a 3 year old, so luckily grandmother was so nice to make her complete ensemble.

We went outside to take some pictures, but it was so bright I couldn't get a single picture of our bride looking at the camera.

We went to our ward Halloween party. Olivia was our bride, I was a wedding cake and Olivia wanted Matt to be the groom. He thought that may be a little weird so he claims he went as the father of the bride instead, but I'm not sure there was much distinction between the two.
Halloween night was a bit chilly, but Olivia enjoyed participating in the Halloween parade and trick-or treating at all the different shops in the neighborhood with her friend.

Olivia collected a lot of candy. When she woke up the next morning she headed straight to her candy bag and spent the next three hours examining the candy and eventually mashing it all up into candy soup...she didn't eat a single piece.
