Madeleine's first Halloween!

Mommy, Oma, and Madeleine went back to the pumpkin patch to get more pictures.

Madeleine testing pumpkins.

Madeleine had a good time in the pumpkin field.

Clapping for a good pumpkin!

Further pumpkin testing.  After this Madeleine got to play with some rabbits. (The traditional Halloween animal, no?)

Madeleine goes to have her picture taken in her leopard outfit that was a gift from Aunt Renate.

The outfit is a little more visible here.  The ears just wouldn't stand up.  Kylie, in the background, is getting put into her Dalmatian costume.

Madeleine's first Halloween party!  Here is the Las Madres group all dressed up for Halloween.

Madeleine with friends.  The mothers are Jane, Soraya, and Dawn and the wee partiers are Ciaran, Soraya, Madeleine, and Ryan.

Madeleine in the car on the way home from the party.  She must have had a good time, she looks so happy.

Halloween night!  Madeleine in her red M&M costume for the real thing now!  The picture in the background is Nancy and her mother.

Giggly girl showing off her costume.  Felix is unsure of the whole thing.

Putting on our scary face!  Roar!

Off to Trick-or-Treat!  We went to exactly one house, our neighbors Erin and Vesna.

Madeleine getting her first treat from Vesna.  Candy and a toy!

Madeleine hands off the toy to mommy while she hangs on to the candy.

We made it through the trial Trick-or-Treat.  Madeleine is pretty sure she is supposed to shove this stuff in her mouth... we have to work on the wrappers for next year!
