Halloween 2010

This year for Halloween, I really wanted to be Dora.  Mom & Dad hoped I would change my mind, and once we got to the costume store, Mom put a Barbie Mermaid costume in my hand.  I was sold!

The day before Halloween, Mom decided we needed a wig.  While the wig cost as much as the costume, we thought it was the perfect touch!

When we got cold & tired, we passed out candy to the trick-or-treaters. 018

Halloween was so much fun this year!  Daddy wore a gorilla mask & gloves, and Mommy wore kitty ears, nose, and a tail! 

Aren’t we cute?!halloween 2010 anna

Rest in Peace, Uncle Doug

Today was a very sad day.  Uncle Doug passed away and went to Heaven.  While I don’t really understand what happened, and what that means, I had great times with him, and love him very much. 

Here is a picture of Uncle Doug and me playing on my 2nd birthday:046

Here are a couple of Mom’s favorite pictures of Uncle Doug:douglas brugger
