Halloween 2014

Well its November (the 3rd of November) which means Halloween has come and gone. But that's OK, we "celebrated" for a week. You will learn that Halloween is one of my favorite "holidays" (Thank you Hallmark). Great excuse to dress ridiculous and eat LOTs of candy. What's better than that? E, with you being 18 weeks, you did dress up but the candy eating was done by me and your dad. It turned bitterly cold the day before Halloween, so we didn't have as many trick or treaters as we expected (we bought 6 bags, we will know next time. 4 bag limit)... so we have a TON of candy leftover. Oh shoot. Guess we'll have to eat it and bring it to work! 

Wednesday, October 29th, we went to Uncle Brent and Aunt Ashley's church for some trunk or treating. Your cousins were there too! Davis was dressed as a skeleton and jumping in the play house. Ava was the prettiest pirate and was painting the little kid's faces, and Amelia, was a ghost. Yep. A white sheet with holes cut out. She cracks me up! We all used to go to Brentwood Baptist but that church has gotten so big that they needed to expand to the communities surrounding. Cue the West Franklin church. This church is a smaller version of Brentwood Baptist but IN Franklin... AND right down the road. We will probably visit once you get a little older. Sunday School is at 9:30 and Service is at 10:45. How perfect is that? 

We dressed up like the Flintstones! You were Pebbles, Dad was Fred, I was Wilma and Moose was Dino. We looked pretty good if you ask me! 

Yabba Dabba Doooooo!!



Friday.. October 31st! Halloween was HERE! 

In the past Me and your Dad would have dressed up and gone out with our friends and would recover the next day. I will explain what that means at a later date... It was always so much fun but this year was the best... because you were here!! So this year we dressed up at work! Your dad's work peeps dressed up like the Addam's Family. Your dad was Lurch. "You raaaannggg" Creepy but perfect! (Yes, your dad has make-up on...)



My work dressed up like Mario Kart characters. Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, and Princess Peach. Mario and the gang are cartoon characters (TV show and movie) but I remember them as a video game that I played on Nintendo 64. Another thing you learn about once you get older, even though it will be vintage by the time you are old enough to know about it. Either way, it was perfect and so much fun! 


Halloween night we had Grammy and Paw Paw over for a cookout and to hand out candy to the (lack of) trick or treaters. It was all around great night! You were in a great mood and were the cutest little baby witch. You got lots of "awwws" at the door from the neighbors! 



Next year, we will be those trick or treaters going door to door getting candy. I wonder what you will be next year, what we will be. 

Let's start thinking! 


First Halloween in the books, little girl! 

Until next year.... 

XOXO
