Halloween!

Oy! I'm exhausted! But we had a GREAT time this Halloween. We started out with a trip to my work for a Halloween potluck and some trick or treating. Then we had a little party with the kids' babysitter and the other kids she watches. On Saturday, a big party with our home daycare group and another that she partners with followed by our goddaughter's birthday party with a costume theme. Finally, on Saturday we had a nice morning at church followed by a party with dear friends. Here are are a few pictures of the weekend.

The kids dressed up for church. Emie's dress reminded me of candy corn and made me happy.

Nathan and his daycare buddies. He dressed as Handy Manny and enjoyed fixing things for people all weekend long. I was relieved that he liked his costume because he's been telling everyone for the past several weeks that he was going to be Santa for Halloween.

Emie dressed as a sock monkey, which was Nathan's costume last year.

We fit in some trick or treating too. It was hard to get a good shot of Nathan. He was on a candy mission!

What a cute little tail!

Emie is such a big girl now, isn't she?

And here is our award winning pumpkin! There was a pumpkin decorating contest at the daycare party. We made a McDonald's Hamburger pumpkin and we won! I was hoping the prize was a month of free daycare, but alas it was a movie night basket instead.

That pumpkin is AMAZING - how cute. Looks like your kids enjoyed Halloween - it is rather exhausting, isn't it. They are adorable in their costumes.Such wonderful smiles.
