Happy Halloween!
Last night was a weird sort of holiday for our family… for once, we weren’t all in the same place. If you know anything about my family, you’ll understand why this is such a strange thing. Josh, K and I worked at our church’s annual Trunk or Treat, Cory worked at the drive-in, while Gran, Poppy, Molly & Ella went to Birmingham to see Disney on Ice. I know she’s only two, but how fun is that?
Now she doesn’t really know anything about Disney characters except: Minnie & Mickey Mouse are on her diapers, K & Cory brought Minnie ears from DisneyWorld this summer, the Disney Princesses are on her pull-ups and of course, the Jungle Book. Thank goodness, this production included Baloo, Mowgli and the monkeys — my child was in heaven.
She & Molly were both Minnie for Halloween and all week Ella has been talking about “two Minnie Mouses.” They looked positively adorable. Ella picked out the most masculine of the light toys, something with the Incredibles? She got home around 10 o’clock last night and despite her pure exhaustion when we asked her what her favorite part was she said, “I saw my monkeys!” Ah… the Jungle Book. Thank you Walt Disney.
