Though it’s a sad day for us to celebrate without Ali, I know she’s still celebrating with us. I’ll still make enchiladas for our family like we have the past few years. Though I won’t have anyone to yell, “I-yi-yi!” with while I sprinkle the cumin onto the chicken, I’ll still do it and think of you. That is, if I remember the cumin, we often forgot! Oops, important ingredient in a Mexican dish!
Because she loved to be festive, here are some random pics I have on my computer of everyone playing dress up with Ali. (Though a couple of these aren’t Halloween.) Be safe and have fun tonight. I hope you all fulfill your sweet-tooth’s desires!
Love, Melanie.

Damn. i was REALLY hoping for some NKOTB pics when you said they weren’t all from Halloween. 🙂 Cheers to all the Tracy family today and this week. We are smiling, laughing, and crying with you all. So many good memories to treasure. Love you all! XO, kel*
love the photos…esp the last one since that was last picture we have of all of us together and Ali’s last picture ever while carving pumpkins on the 30th last year. She left lots of costumes for us to play in. Loved the sweat suit with the the Van Gogh artwork in the first picture but it’s missing Ben who dressed as Van Gogh!!!! Very clever you two! We all have so much fun dressing up on this day and will continue in our tradition. Ali just gets to watch down on us and clap at our cleverness. Bet nothing for a long time will beat Melanie and Adam with family this year tho…way too good. Willie Wonka lives!!!!!!!
