Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone! Well, we had a VERY busy Halloween weekend with little Olivia. On Friday, they had a Halloween party at daycare and all the kids got to show off their costumes and eat lots of yummy snacks.

Here's a picture of Olivia with Jordyn (left) and Sophia (right) munching on the cookies! As you can see, Olivia was Minnie Mouse for Halloween:

Here are the boys - Ethan (left) and DJ (right):

Here's a video from the party:



Friday night we went to a Halloween Festival, "Goblins in the Park," with some friends. Sara and Gracie went with us and we met our little friends, Logan and Masyn with their parents, there. It was a good time and we enjoyed seeing all of Olivia's little friends together. Olivia and Gracie entered the 2 and under Halloween costume contest and got to parade around. Olivia didn't win, but we thought she was adorable. (A baby garden gnome won!)

Here we are hanging out before we left for the festival:



Here's little Gracie dressed as Curious George:



Grant met us out there when he got off work. Here he is with all the little ones.
From left to right: Masyn, Olivia, Gracie and Logan. Aren't they all so cute! Logan was a kitty cat and Masyn was *supposed* to be a pumpkin but didn't feel like wearing her costume.
(this is the best we could do with getting a group picture!)



When we got home that evening, we let Olivia and Gracie hang out and play a bit. Here's Gracie (wearing a pair of Olivia's PJs) and Olivia *sharing* the little bike. Olivia was on it and Gracie jumped on in front of her!


Then on Halloween/Saturday Olivia got to wear her costume to The Little Gym:




They ALWAYS love the bubbles at the end of class:

THEN, that night, it was time to get ready for our FIRST trick-or-treating adventure! We went around some of our neighbor's houses (especially all the neighbors we know really well) and Olivia got some yummy candy. Olivia has already REALLY enjoyed a dum dum lollipop while we were out.
Here she is with ready to go:

Then on Sunday, Grandmom and Granddad came to visit us! So we spent the afternoon hanging out with them. Grandmom even brought Olivia a little Minnie Mouse stuffed animal to play with in honor of her cute little costume! So, after a long weekend filled with friends, family and fun - we are all pretty worn out!
