Trick or Treat, smell my feet, give me some... electricity?

Friday night was TRICK OR TREAT in our neighborhood.  I can't have candy yet, but that didn't stop us from joining in the festivities of dressing up and showing off to all of our neighbors.  Mom did an awesome job making my gladiator costume.  You might remember the hat from the earlier post about croquet.  Because the hat was so fantastic, Mom made the rest of my costume: golden armor, a leather belt, and a daring red cape.  I was the bravest gladiator in all the land!  Mom and Dad dressed up like Roman Royalty to complete our family theme.  I would say it was a very successful first trick or treat!

The rest of the weekend was crazy!  On saturday we went to Grandma and Grandpa's house for Aunt Rachel's baby shower, and it SNOWED!  All day.  Mommy says that never in her whole life has it snowed on Halloween.  I say in my whole life it's snowed on EVERY Halloween!  We got about 8 inches at Grandma's house, and 4 inches at our house.  Because all of the trees still have most of their leaves, the snow weighed them down too much.  Lots of branches were breaking off, covering the roads, and taking out power lines.  When we got home on Saturday evening we had no electricity!  Dad went to Panera Bread so he could get some work done, and then we all went to bed early, hoping the electicity would be back in the morning.  It wasn't.  So we went to Dunkin Donuts for breakfast, and then decided to head back over the Grandma and Grandpa's house.  At least there we could play and stay warm.  Gigi and Grandpa came to visit, too!  I got to see all of my Grandparents in one weekend.  

We're spending the night and Grandma and Grandpa's house.  The electricity still wasn't on at home when we went back to feed the kitties.  So I'm distance blogging!  Mom and Dad almost forgot to take my 41 Week photo.  We're all turned around because of the crazy turn of events.  But we took it, and we'll post it soon.  

From Mommy: Preston's first Halloween weekend has been a lot of fun.  It hasn't turned out at all like we thought it would.  We were hoping to go visit baby Gavin, and see some of John's cousins today, but the weather totally threw us off course.  We are getting good at being flexible, and although we probably would have been ok at home tonight, we are happy that we have parents so close to bail us out of a chilly night of no electricity.  If it was just us, we probably would have stayed home, but with the baby it's better to be safe.  Let's hope we're back to normal tomorrow.  Who would have thought we would have had a snowstorm in October.  Preston's first year has definitely brought some crazy weather!
