Tow Mater and the giraffe had a fun Halloween. It took me a long time to decide what Macie would dress like. We had 4 or 5 choices with all the hand me downs and the costume I bought at a consignment sale for $2. She ended up wearing her brothers costume because it fit the best and it was one of the few things she will be able to wear of his. She wore his pumpkin costume to Carson's school party. He had 2 his first year because Gigi sent the pumpkin after we had the giraffe.
We have really had a fun couple of days. Tuesday was Carson's school party. Macie and I went to the party. All the little kids loved playing with her. The slide show has a couple pictures of the kids holding her. Katy, who was in Carson's class last year, loves babies. She is the little blond girl. Most of the boys were super heros. I don't know how we have avoided this stage, but Carson is still into Cars and Thomas. Actually none of his friends are really into them either. As I mentioned before Tuesday night we carved pumpkins. There are a few pictures from that in the slide show as well.
Yesterday morning, we went with Carter and Addison to Chic-fil-a and then to the pumpkin patch one last time. The one at school has a big bounce castle, so it is lots of fun for the boys. Shahla and I figured it was a good way to entertain them before naps.
A few years ago, my college friend Tonya mentioned that her friends have pizza in the cul-de-sac before trick or treating. I mentioned it to our neighbors and it is now a yearly occurrence for us as well. Last night we have between 60 and 70 people there. The kids love it and it is fun to see all of our neighbors. The kids have a little parade to show off their costumes. Macie was very cute trying to keep up while pushing a little walking toy. Jeff was trying to hold her hand and Asher's hand and get them both to walk. I don't have any pictures because I was videoing at the time. I bet someone else will send me a copy. Once it is close to dark, we head out to trick or treat. All the boys come in a big mass. This year they were really into it. It is fun to see how they change from year to year.
