On the way out!

Daymond was so excited to go trick or treating. I was so surprised by his enthusiasm. Usually a shy boy, he would walk to the door on his own and say "Trick or Treat" to get some Candy.

I was certain he would of hidden behind our legs but I guess candy is a BIG motivator for kids.

The most amusing thing he did was when kids came to the door for candy, he would hand the candy out (one per kid, he had to conserve I guess) and then he would say "Thank you - ?" and he would say the name of the costume. (ex. Thank you Giraffe, thank you horsie)

For the past 2 days it's been snowing in Calgary and today it warmed up enough to make snowman snow. Rarely do we have this kind of snow here so we had to take advantage of the moment.

Nova says "I so WANT that carrot!"

Daymond didn't really want anything to do with the snowman so I had to ask him to touch it's nose to get him to stand near it.

After telling Nova over and over not to eat the carrot/nose, when I told him he could, he didn't believe me. Lira, on the other hand, had no problem taking the carrot from the snowman.
