Halloween 2008

This was a very busy, but very fun Halloween. First, the weather here was awesome! It was a beautiful warm and sunny day (Thank You, Lord!) you couldn't have asked for a better fall day for some Halloween fun!

First, we started the day off at a Halloween Costume Playdate, and I hope this is a new tradition because it was really fun! A great way to get A LOT of kids together in their costumes to have a blast! We played outside, had story time, held a costume parade, did crafts and ate a great lunch with friends and family.

Our good friend, Beth, holding the sweetest little clown!

Not a whole lot of smiley pics from little clown baby, but I'm glad she kept her wig on for a few pics.

She really loved sitting in the leaves.


One of J's best buds came with us to the shindig. Superhero buds!!

After a ton of fun at the playdate we headed home and put Em down for much needed nap. Then we carved our pumpkins. J didn't like getting all messy, so I did most of the work while he played with a near by lady bug.

Before the carving...

He had to stick his hand in at least once for the photo op...yukky.

The "after" shot. We did a Happy Jack and a kitty cat. Lit up at dusk...spooky. Trick or Treat!!
The moon looked like the Chesire Cat's smile.

J and E opening their goody bags from Gam and Papaw.
Yummy crunchies...Em's favorite.

We ended the day at another Halloween Party.

There was a lot of dancing going on and J can really cut a rug. Check out this video of his killer moves!

October was a really fun month...let's see what kind of fun November holds. We're looking forward to Thanksgiving and a visit from Grampa Sonny and Nanny and then....the Christmas Tree!!!
