Happy Halloween!!

Just thought I'd share a little glimpse into our Halloween festivities. We had a big day, full of lots of fun stuff, and ended up on a candy high for a couple of days! Oh well, it only comes around once a year!

Our goblins in their costumes, getting ready to trick-or-treat at an adult day center with our MOMS Club friends.
We tried for Lions & Tigers & Bears (oh my!) but couldn't find a bear costume to fit anyone anywhere! So, Austin is a Dragon!At Daddy's birthday lunch - lots of fun!
Dancing and singing our Halloween song!
They were so excited to go out and get candy!


Trick-or-treating at our friends house.
Gretchen learned very quickly what this was all about!.
Taking a quick play beak from mall trick-or-treating.
From one lion to another....

Having fun at the church Harvest Party.
Here is the bean bag game....

....and here is the apple toss game.

Eating our spoils with Daddy.....

....and Mommy.


We finished the evening by trick-or-treating a few houses in our neighborhood, where we got some of the best candy (full-size candy bars, with mom and dad's names all over them!). We had three very tired little pumpkins by the time we were done, but I know they all had a fantastic day!

A day at the farms

We took the kids to a couple of local farms for some fun fall activities today. Corn maze, pumpkin blasting, lots of animals, and pumpkins galore. We had a great time!
