Halloween 2010

We had a fun, busy Halloween weekend! This was the first year Sarah was old enough to really understand what candy is and how to get it, and it only took her a house or two to get the whole trick-or-treating thing down. Though I had to keep her from walking in the first couple houses.

We carved a couple of pumpkins last weekend...next year we will have to do it a little closer to Halloween. They were pretty shriveled up by the time Sunday rolled around, but we had fun doing them. Though Sarah didn't want anything to do with the pumpkin guts.










Last week, our library had a Halloween party for all the two-year-olds in our story time group. Talk about a little chaotic...30 toddlers in costume, but very cute!

On Saturday, we went to the KC zoo for the Boo at the Zoo. They had stations set up to get candy and other goodies, including ice cream and chocolate milk!

Adam, Angela and their kids stopped by to visit before going trick-or-treating. Their whole family was dressed as pirates.

All bundled up and ready to go!

She was very excited about getting candy!
