Happy Halloween!!

Cyprus and I went to Logan to visit my parents for Halloween.  She did a pretty good job of trick-or-treating.  She wanted to do it all by herself.  This is actually her 3rd halloween.  Her first, she was a stick of pink bubble gum (we just put her in a pink sleeper dress), then she was a little cat, check her out this year!

Yes, this post is LATE!!!  But here is my Fairy Princess.  She still reminds me that she is a fairy princess often!  I love fall colors!
Go Cyprus!  I have a picture of me when I was 4 or so as Sheera Princess of Power holding up my sword, just like Cy is holding up her "wand".  The wand is actually a wooden spoon with a hair tie around it!
