Halloween Week
This week was full of house stuff. Getting quotes and make decisions. (Not very Halloween inspired but it happened this week none the less.
On Saturday Hadley had a birthday party to go to on Saturday for Adam (from SK). It was at the local bowling alley and all her peers as well as her, were dressed up in their halloween costumes for added fun! She loved it.
I was so proud to watch how polite she was.
Sunday we had our annual mommy group Halloween party.
Patti did most of the organizing on this one. She booked the room and got a few crafts prepared for the kids while the rest of us added to the snacks for all to enjoy. It was great to see everyone and I can't believe we have been doing this for 6 years now. SO FUN!
A few new families have joined the core group and it just makes for good times! That morning we also had gymnastics photos and Brian's mom and his Grandma Stock also dropped in after a wedding they were attending. So it was a VERY busy day!
Hadley and I also had dentist appointments this week because we needed to add in something extra. :)
Today I decided to continue my Halloween tradition and take the kids to the zoo. Although it was a bit of a rush as I had to do it before Hadley was to be at school for the afternoon. However the kids loved showing the animals their costumes. (Even though it was drizzling rain). They didn't seem to mind at all. We were fortunate enough to get to the education centre which was FULL of Halloween fun. Hadley touched a snake skin, and other fun things. There were tarantulas and other fun Halloween animals through out the room which was decorated well. Good times.
Then at school she was delighted to go in her costume and bring her orange treat for everyone. She was in charge of carrots.
We went out for dinner and then took our excited kids out trick or treating.
No stroller. This made it so easy!
Both kids loved it. Both kids were cute. Both kids were polite.
Even in the rain it was GOOD times!
Happy Halloween!
