Trick-or-Treating at Grandma and Grandpa Byards' House

Over fall break we spent a night in Indianapolis with Kyle's parents.  A few hours before we left, we realized that this would be the last time Audrey got to see Kyle's parents before Halloween was over, so we figured we should pack up an outfit for Audrey to put on for her grandparents.  We got out the costume box (packed full of kid outfits I've been picking up for super-cheap at garage sales for the last several years) and determined that about five or so outfits would fit Audrey right now.  Once Kyle realized the Batgirl outfit would fit Audrey this year (the tag says 2T), he insisted that we stop looking at the rest of them.

So...not bad for throwing it together a few hours before we left the house!  We had everything already!  The dress, the gauntlets, and the cape were the actual outfit.  We dug out a long-sleeved gold shirt out of Audrey's closet, and she had the black tights and black boots.  The hairclip is thanks to our friends Kim and Phil Call, who gave them to us to stick on a headband for Audrey before she was born (we're still getting use out of them!).  The batarang is Kyle's toy and the bag held comic books that Kyle had purchased earlier in the month.  I was pretty impressed with us!

Waking up from her nap and getting out of the car...a little confused about where she was.

Audrey actually really hates being in costumes and started to cry.

All better now that Grandma has me!

We went trick-or-treating at the Gundersons' house, my in-laws' next door neighbors.  It was the first time Audrey solicited candy from someone who was NOT a relative. 

Mr. Gunderson left to go get the candy.  Audrey didn't really know what to do.

Still NOT thrilled about being dressed up, even after we came back.

After a half hour or so, she warms up to it!
