Happy Halloween to Everyone! What a busy weekend it was for us. We went to a couple of Halloween parties, Boo Bash at the YMCA, had lunch in Lawrence with my sister and brother-in-law, got haircuts, went trick-or-treating, and watched The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown movie. Hopefully this week we can relax a little.
We started discussing Halloween costumes at our house probably 6 months ago. I don't have any idea why but Madelyn had her heart set on being a pink squirrel. I wasn't so excited about the idea because squirrels aren't my thing and I didn't have any clue where I would find this costume. Luckily, within the past couple of weeks I was able to persuade her with pictures of other costumes. So she ended up being an adorable Minnie Mouse.
We got to play lots of little games at the Y to get candy. Madelyn's favorite this year and last year was fishing for spiders.
Say Cheese!
She won a sugary cupcake at the cake walk.
Today we carved our big pumpkin. We were careful to keep the pumpkin seeds to plant next fall. Hopefully that will work better for us next spring.
Just being silly!

I fixed us a Halloween themed meal. We had Goblin Stew (beef stew) and Witches brew.
Next up - the holiday season begins!
