Little Red Riding Hood

Last year Valentina and Akira dressed up as a chef and lobster.  They went "Trick or Treating" to a few houses, but Valentina too young to appreciate the joy of free candy and Akira was too upset with her costume to enjoy the walk.  Fast forward one year and things were starkly different.

She started her Halloween adventures with an afternoon visit to my office to trick or treat with my coworkers.  The best part was the donut she was able to enjoy until my coworkers dog took it from her.  After a few tears about her donut, she was happy again.

We left the office, grabbed some pizza to go and hurried home to start our neighborhood adventure.  Valentina was very excited about going door to door as Little Red Riding Hood and Akira enjoyed being her wolf.  ESPN, and three little pigs joined in on the fun too, so Valentina had two wolves, three pigs, a mom and a dad in her entourage.  Our neighbors are wonderful people and made it special.  She came home with lots of candy, some special cookies and a really cute stuffed animal.

Our friends Chris, Julia and Dakota as the three pigs.  The two wolves were really well behaved next to the pigs.
