SCREAMMMM

Every year for Halloween, we always headed over to Mom and Jerry's for to trick or treat and then afterwards we had a fire to roast hot dogs and marshmallows. Thankfully, Jerry has continued to that tradition since Mom has been gone. This year however, was our last year - Jerry's is moving into a new house with his soon-to-be new wife (blah, blah, blah). Mason dressed up this year as the Scream dude from the movie Scream. Zach of course said he was too old to trick or treat, but he passed out candy. Olivia was a hippie and Emily was a panther - so cute! We didn't walk as far this year because we knew we were trick or treating on Friday night too and my kids definitely don't need anymore candy! Anyways, my friend Ally stopped by and immediately went up to Rylie (my dog - which is a Sheltie). Sheltie's are very protective of their owners and somewhat skiddish of strangers. However, since Ally has a Sheltie named Sadie, apparently she thought Rylie would warm up to her. She immediately picked him up and I could hear Rylie growling...all of a sudden Rylie snaps at her and tried to jump down, but Ally holds on to him and then plop...Rylie hits the ground...Ally dropped him. Rylie immediately takes off running for a safe place. My poor Ry Ry will never forgive her for that. (OK, so it was an accident, but still...she dropped my dog). The night ended peacefully and Mason got lots of candy.

This is Rylie hiding from Ally! Poor Rylie...if only he knew that Ally really does adore him!
