Halloween Texas Style

So, here we are.  Littleman, the adorable blue dog.  I drew fangs on him last week and that freaked him out a little.  For Halloween he just wanted a blue nose and "whisker spots."  He wanted to be a "nice blue dog."  It was a whopping 81 degrees at 4 in the afternoon, so he didn't really wear his whole costume until the evening.  In Texas, the official trick-or-treating begins after 6 pm.  In NY, the moment you get off the school bus, it seemed, was time to grab your goody-bag and go.  Perhaps it's later here because it's so darn hot.  Anyway, we went to a "Scare on the square" in a little historic downtown area with a couple of friends.  Store owners dress up and sit outside their shops giving away treats.  We headed home for dinner with Grandma, Aunt Jen, Uncle Dave and little Nico.  And then the REAL trick or treating began.  We got home at 8:30!  Both boys were wasted and dragging their heavy loot behind them.  (Luckily, Aunt Jen brought the wagon, so the boys had a nice ride while us grown ups did the real dragging.)  To sum up, it was a fun afternoon/evening for Littleman.  I had fun...but I really missed being back home.  Not to mention, a year ago today was my last day as a NY resident.  Well, enjoy the pics and I hope you all had a very Happy Halloween.
