Halloween!

I hope everyone likes our new layout! My wonderful cousin, Rachel, re-designed The Yurasko Difference, and I'm super happy with the results.

We had a great Halloween! Since Alexandra loves Tigger, we thought that she would make a perfect Tigger for her second Halloween. She loved her costume, and actually has enjoyed dressing up in it since Halloween. I had to snap this photo below of her pushing her Tigger while dressed as Tigger.

We started our festivities of the day by visiting the NRA, since they had decorated their museum as a "haunted" house for kids. Alexandra learned how to get candy out of a pumkin holder, and she got to try her first piece of candy (a twizzler stick). It's actually a very cool museum that I highly recommend (and I'm not into guns, so that's saying a lot!)

Christopher had a lot of fun leading our little Tigger through the NRA museum, but had even more fun. . . . .

HOLDING ALEC GUINESS' ACTUAL LIGHTSABER FROM STAR WARS!!! Yes, the NRA has this, and yes, they let us hold it!!!

Next, we visited Rachel, Sol, and Finley, and were happy to spend time with Laura, who was visiting during a short med school break. Finley was the most adorable monkey for his first Halloween. Laura is helping him model the cute hood in the photo above, and then Rachel is showing his face in the photo to the left.

What could possibly be cuter that a toddler Tigger on Halloween?

How about TWO Tiggers?!? Alexandra's cousin Will also decided to dress like Tigger for his second Halloween. Grandee and Granddad had to come and visit the two Tiggers on Halloween.

We had a lot of fun taking the two Tiggers trick-or-treating. They were great at getting the candy, but not so great at putting it into the bag, so we ended up with a lot of candy that had been melted by little Tigger hands.

We didn't have any trick-or-treaters come to our door this year, but Socks made sure that our candy was well protected.
