I thought the White house was white! It's orange!
So, I bet you’re wondering what a Travel Frog does on Halloween, right? Well, I go trick or treating! This year I tagged along with the Williams’ family to visit the President’s pad (or maybe you call it the White House). It was glowing orange and had the biggest spiders on it I’d ever seen, and there were big scary eyes in the window! We saw people in really cool costumes, too. My favorite was spaghetti and meatballs! My friends Colin, Declan and I got special treats which included a cookie shaped like the White House with a big spider on it, Yum! Not everyone gets the chance to trick or treat at the White House and I felt very special.
After seeing me at the White House, I bet lots of people will dress up as "Travel Frogs" for Halloween next year!

Wow…you are lucky to get to go to the White House! This Friday, Nov. 20th is the lighting of the Christmas Tree in downtown Martinsburg! My Mama is taking me. You should come. I think it’s going to be fun. Maybe I’ll see you there. Keep up the travels!

How cool to Trick or Treat at the White House,(some “pad”, huh!) and with such awesome friends!! I recognize those pirates, and you couldn’t find better company to “hop” around with.

Did Polly get a chance to meet the president? That would have been fantastic! I know he was there because I saw it on the news! It looks like you had a great time!

Did Polly go in the White House? Did Polly got 50 bags of candy? I would go into the White House if I was allowed to go in. Did Polly play with the kids?

I think it’s funny that you signed your name as Thomas Jefferson since you just read a story about him! Polly received a giant cookie that looked like the White House when she went trick-or-treating there. She definitely didn’t get 50 bags of candy! I think Polly enjoyed playing with the kids.
Love,
Polly #3 & Mrs. Schneider
P.S. See you at school tomorrow!
