Their First Halloween

Ellie had just finished putting on Maddie's costume and Maddie was loving it.

"I'm a lion! RAWR!" she giggled as she ran around her house.

Ellie chuckled as she grabbed Madison's Halloween bag and adjusted her costume a bit. Eh, what the hell? It was Maddie's first Halloween and she wanted to dress up a bit as well.

"Kay, come on Maddie, Lacy & Brandon are outside." she said as she opened the door and they went outside. Luckily, the weather was nice out. Not too cold and not too hot. A perfect fall day in Georgia.

"Hey guys, ready?"

"Layley! Look at me! I lion!" she giggled as she ran towards Lacy. "RAWR!"

Lacy chuckled as she pushed Brandon's strolled meeting up with the two. "Yes you are, a very cool lion, too." She told her.

Brandon blinked up at Maddie when she came up roaring all over the place, and pulled at his onesie.

"Hi Brandon!" she waved. "Are you a pumpkin?" Maddie asked.

"Lacy, where's your costume?" Ellie chuckled. "Too old for that?" she teased.

"Phil and I were too busy debating on what onesie Brandon should wear." She chuckled. "He bought something that said something about zombies and drums."

"How....nice." she chuckled. "I thought he would be in a cute costume."

"infant costumes are ugly." Lacy shook her head.

"Eh well, I guess.'' she chuckled.

"So we are taking Madison trick or treating?"

"Just around the block." she said. "There's also a place down the road where they have pumpkin picking and all that, so I figured we could go and get one and then we can carve some pumpkins."

She nodded. "Sounds good. Don't know how much Brandon will enjoy it," she chuckled.

"Brandon is going to be a grumpy boy, just like his daddy." she joked.

"Finally someone agrees." She smirked. "That I am not the grumpy one."

"You're not that grumpy." she chuckled. "Sometimes."

"Hush up." She chuckled. "Let's get going, you know your way around here more than I do."

She chuckled as they walked to the first house.

"Layley, I get candy today." Maddie grinned.

"Yep, and I'll beat up whoever doesn't," she joked.

"Why?" she asked.

"'Cause you deserve as much candy as you want." She knew Ellie probably wouldn't appreciate that. lol

"Not too much though. Then Maddie won't sleep. Jerk, trying to get her hyper." she chuckled.

"Why do I have to be a jerk?" She pouted.

"Cause I said so."

"You aren't very nice." She said as they went up to the first house.

"Yes I am." she smirked as she grabbed Maddie's hand and took her to the door.

"RAWR! Trick or treat!" Maddie said as the door opened and she was given some candy. Ellie chuckled as they thanked her neighbor and Maddie came back by Lacy.

"Look Layley! Candy!" she grinned.

Lacy laughed at Maddie, and surprisingly, so did Brandon.

"Good on you, Maddie." She laughed. "Let's take you to a few more houses."

"Kay. Does Brandon want candy?" Maddie asked. "I share." she nodded.
