Trick 'er Treat, Smell my Feet!

Happy Early Halloween! We went Trick or Treating today down a really nifty street of shops, art galleries and restaurants near our house. Violet got all dressed up in her Purple Bug costume and off we went!

We met up with her playgroup pals. A devil, a bandit, a bug, a bunny, and a ladybug. There was also a ballerina but she was off doing some barre work.
Uh, did you know they are putting CANDY in this bag??
She got the hang of this REAL quick!Walking down the street with mom :)

Violet was testing out her first lollipop. She couldn't put it down for a family picture!
Here is the "better half" of my playgroup (or more aptly, the "more tired half"). From left to right, Sarah W., me, Megan holding her little pumpkin, and Sarah B. We let the daddies play with the kids at the park after a long day of candy gathering!

So yes, life goes on without Obi. For how frustrating he could be, we really REALLY miss him. It's strange to come into the house and only be greeted by one (quiet) dog. Violet has a little more room to run in the house, but otherwise she doesn't seem to realize he's gone. Porter is definitely more lonely, but he is getting lots of attention.

Give your doggies (or kitties, or ferrets, or ponies) some extra hug and smooch for us!
