Yesterday, the girls and I walked (and rode) in the first annual Trick or Trot to benefit Special Olympics in the Worcester area. Our team raised over $1000! I dressed up like a pumpkin per Izzy's request and the girls got to get even more use out of their costumes. Izzy was a little cranky but candy and a good breakfast of bacon, potatoes, and fruit cheered her up. And she got some cotton candy from a friendly student volunteer. Mae had fun watching all of the crazy people dressed up in costumes. Our team won the "Scariest Costume" award. We had a few vampires and Grandma was a witch and Uncle Ben was a pirate captain. We saw a woman dressed as Cap'n Hook and a brave young runner in an Avatar costume which involved a skin-tight turquoise unitard. The winning team was a young family in Dr. Seuss costumes complete with twins as Thing 1 and Thing 2.
Waiting for the walk to begin.

On our way (Izzy is feigning sleep to avoid the camera)

"Hold my bucket, please."

"No, I don't want my picture!"

Izzy gets more sugar ;)

Grandma shows off her Mae

A Pirate and his Piglet

She can't have bacon so her thumb must do

Izzy is a good sharer even with Cotton Candy

Tired kiddos but Mommy wants a picture.

Ponyo is tired. Time to go.
