Halloween 2009

On Halloween Day (October 31), my parents came for the weekend and wanted to be here to see Gabriella's first trick-or-treating in her gnome Halloween costume. Gabriella was so adorable in her Gnome Costume. I picked a good one! While we waited for the night, my dad made us a huge pot of Bigos!! Ohh, we loved to eat it. There was plenty of Bigos left so we separated and put it in freezer. It saved my time to cook dinner when I wasn't in the mood to cook during my pregnancy. Thanks to DAD! It was so delicious. Also, my Aunt Danuta and Uncle Jim stopped by surprisingly. It was wonderful seeing them. They gave Gabriella's first trick-or-treat candy.

In the late afternoon, there were many doorbell ringings since many kids stopped by for trick-or-treat. Gabriella was looking at them and analyzed what was going on. She seemed to not understand what Halloween was about, but she was getting there. So far, she loved to run to the door and check out these kids with their unique costumes and give them candies. We decided to take Gabriella out for trick-or-treat in late afternoon since it was so cold outside. So, Kevin, Dzia Dzia, and Gabriella were out for trick-or-treat at the close neighbors. Once she got the candies, she wanted to eat them. No No No.. it wasn't going to happen until after her dinner. She ate one of them. So far, it went great on that day. At night, we chilled out in the family room after a long day!
