The Chicken Lives!!

After the stress of the dead chicken on my floor all week, in the eleventh hour I tried the costume again and it was a great success. We took a few photos at home and then went to the community ammenity center for games and a Halloween Costume Contest.

First we had to try out the shoes which were chucks covered with yellow rubber gloves.

My sweet little bock bock chicken.

Waiting in line for the costume contest...there had to be close to 200 costumes.

Watch out, flying chicken!

Playing games with Dada and Ya-Ya.



Did you notice how quickly this post went up...same day. Well that's because I wanted to brag about my little chicken and my Martha Stewart craftiness. The picture below is of my little contest winner and her loot. She may not have been trick or treating on Halloween, but she did win Most Original Costume!!!

A's costume was hot and of course it was in the 80s so we skipped the candy this year and went home to chili simmering on the stove instead.

Isn't it amazing how different she looks from a year ago.
