My First Halloween and the Pumpkin Patch

We had our first "big" holiday as a family last week and had the best time! For Halloween we decided to dress up as a family. Macy Claire's genius Witty (Whitney) helped us come up with the idea to dress up as Peter Pan, Wendy, and Tinkerbell. I thought finding a blue nightgown to be Wendy would be SO easy! WRONG! It took forever to find something that would work, but it was so worth it. We easily found costumes for Scott and Macy Claire and they were precious.

The Friday before Halloween we went to our Supper Clubs Halloween party and had a great time with our friends. Macy Claire and Everett slept like little angels and let the big kids have some fun.We didn't get any pictures of the 3 of us that night because our sweet girl goes to bed so early (NOT complaining. We are so lucky to have such a great sleeper). Our hosts, Austin and Lauren Brown,  prepared the most delicious Taco Soup, great snacks, spooky music, and a great game of charades. We have so enjoyed being a part of such a wonderful Supper Club the last few years. We look forward to it every month.

Halloween night was forcasted to be a wash out so our neighborhood decided to Trick or Treat a night early. We decided she was still a little to small to enjoy Trick or Treating, but she did enjoy looking at all the children that came to the door. We had more Trick or Treaters this year than we ever have before. I have to say my favorite costume was a set of triplets dressed as Dorothy, Tin Man, and the Lion.

We also had our first visit to the Pumpkin Patch and had such a great time with our friends Keith and Marianna and sweet Everett. There were all kinds of animals, a corn maze, hay ride, and so much more. We didn't get a chance to go on the hay ride this year. It was an hour long and we didn't think our little ones would be able to handle a whole hour. We walked them around and showed them the animals and the babies both got there first pumpkin! I know that when we go back next year the kids are going to love all of the activities!
