Happy Halloween!

 

Chloe really enjoyed Halloween this year.  Which of course, allowed me to have lots of fun too.  She had a shirt for each day of the week (most I failed to take pics of).  Someone told me I should've worn this one....

(In case you can't read it - it says "I'm a Little Batty!" - lol)

Catelynn and Chloe got to go to their first pumpkin/slumber party at Kylie's house and they both wore a Halloween pajama set to sleep in.  They bobbed for apples, painted faces, had pillow fights and watched Casper the Ghost.  Kaydee & Jonathan from church did this for them.  What a fun pumpkin/slumber party!  Wish I had pictures, but I didn't go.

Chloe's school field trip took them to Guthrie Farms in Charleston, TN. She had a great time on a hay ride through fields of pumpkins. They got to pick out their own pumpkin and bring it home.  So, Saturday evening - Chloe called her big sister and asked her to come carve her pumpkin.  Even tho "Sissy" was on her way to a costume party - she gladly obliged her sister.  Here's the result...  Thanks Sissy!

Lydia, her friend Jacob and Chloe - aka Spider Girl

Since Sissy was dressed up as a "flapper girl from the 20's" - Chloe had to try on her outfit

 

More "try it out" pictures - Go "Spider Power"! 

Now, of course - the first thing we did on Halloween was go to church Sunday morning!  Yes, we have our priorities straight.  Then we ate a good lunch and the evening's fun began. 

Our first stop, of course, was to Memaw and Popaw's house.  Chloe's empty bag - was almost full by the time we left - thanks Memaw & Popaw!  After Memaw & Popaw's house, we went to the mall and trick-or-treated.  We like this option, as you make a circle around the mall, they have fun activities for the kids (sponsored by Westwood Baptist) and as long as they're little - it doesn't really matter how much candy they get.  Julian's other grandma (Joan) & his Pappy (Tony) help Westwood every year.  This year they were dressed as Mr and Mrs Potato Head.  Some of their friends were Little Bo Peep and a Pink Pig.

The kids really like getting their pictures taken with the characters.  Although Julian didn't go to the mall, we did get to see him dressed up as "Broby" (a character from a cartoon called "Yo Gabba Gabba").

We also went to "Aunt Rita's" house and had to empty Chloe's bag and it got filled again.  We then went home and had trick or treaters come to our house.  Julian was one.  Catelynn was dressed as the cutest witch I've ever seen.  Collin was a Ninja turtle.  Hailey was a kitty cat.  Some of the pics turned out a little dark, but maybe you can see how cute they were.

 

I think by now - you can see why we had so much fun.  Kids really do make things more fun!

Hope you had a great time too.
