Trick or Treat!

After weeks of counting down for Halloween, little Miss Cinderella was finally able to go trick or treating. She had quite the day with a neighborhood Halloween in the early afternoon followed by going to a few houses on our street for her precious treats! Needless to say she was thrilled she could wear her princess dress all day long! The first few houses she held her princess bucket out nicely and then by the last houses she knew the routine and was bold enough to grab the candy all on our her....too much at some houses and I had to say, "Mia! Only one piece!" It was a day mixed with emtions for the rest of us as we were grieving the loss of Mia's dear Sampa while trying not to distrupt her routine and our promises to her that we were take her out for candy. Mat even found a few minutes to leave the funeral home and come put on his Halloween costume for her as he had been telling for weeks...he's an amazing daddy. We feel so blessed she had the opportunity to know her Sampa and that he got to meet his grand-daughter. We miss him terribly but know he's always with us and know he'll help guide his second grand-daughter safely to us.
