Our Little Angel...For He will give His angels
charge of you to guard you
in all your ways.
-Psalm 91:11
There are so many costumes to choose from for infants but I already knew what she's going to be this Halloween. She's going to be herself...an angel to us! Hehehe! (Though I must admit, she's not always an angel! Lol! Especially when she opens her mouth and scream at the top of her lungs and we have to guess what's bugging her, more or less, do a trial and error in a middle of a photo shoot!)
Early that morning, we went to a portrait studio to take a picture of her in her angel outfit. She was in a bad mood so only few pictures turned out good. The others did not even remotely portray a little angel. (I told ya so!)
We did not go trick or treating yet but we went to my brother-in-laws halloween party! That was really fun! She's not aware of it yet but I'm sure next year is something to look forward to!
HALLOWEEN FUN FACTS
Black cats, ghouls and goblins, sugary treats — just about everyone's familiar with the traditional trappings of Halloween.
Halloween history
• Many experts believe the druids were the first to observe Halloween. Dating back to 700 B.C., they celebrated the festival of Samhain (the end of the harvest and a time to honor the dead) on November 1. In the ensuing years, the night before became known as the Eve of All Hallows, a.k.a. Hallow Even, a.k.a. Hallow e'en.
• Ever wonder how trick-or-treating got started? On the evening before Samhain, people left food on their doorsteps to keep hungry spirits from entering the house. Festivalgoers started dressing in ghost, witch, and goblin costumes so wandering spirits would leave them alone. To this day, these are Halloween's most popular costumes.
• The word witch comes from the Saxon word wicca, which means "wise one."
