Morey started off the morning in his heifer costume. This
was to contrast his usual bovine affiliation as a longhorn. I don’t think Morey
appreciated the halloween humor, but he looked pretty adorable as a heifer!
His afternoon costume was a devil costume complete with a
cape (with a tail) and horns. Obviously, this contrasts Morey’s usual behavior
as a perfect angel. Although I dressed him as a devil, I am happy to report
that he did not take on any devilish behaviors. J
Although Morey is used to wearing his vest, his devil cape came down farther on
his back and it must have felt odd to him as he walked. The tail also kept
brushing against his back legs and so he seemed a bit like a devil with a
twitch.
This was my first real experience with trick or treating
(I’ve never lived in a neighborhood where kids can walk door to door) and
probably Morey’s first experience as well. He was dressed in his heifer costume
for the occasion. At the first ring of the doorbell, Morey went to his bed as
his usual response. I called him over to see the kids and he came over eagerly.
When they simply took candy and left, he looked at me like, what was that
about? Usually when people come to the door, they come inside and then usually
procede to greet Morey. By the third round of trick-or-treaters, Morey didn’t
even bother to get up. I think he was tired of all the hubbub associated with
Halloween!
