All things October...

I have not been keeping up with the blog at all lately, since things have been so hectic, so I am going to attempt to catch up now. Here we go!

We visited Carlton Farms pumpkin patch again this year with some friends. It was so hot, but we enjoyed our afternoon on the hayride, sorting pumpkins, petting the baby animals, and playing in the hay. This was our fourth year going to the pumpkin patch with the Slatton's. Taylor and Grace always run down this dirt road together, racing to the hayride.

2010- they switched sides this year!























We went to our town's Halloween festival this year, and Grace decided to go as a princess. She put on one of the dresses she wore as a flower girl (she was in so many weddings this year, ha!) and let me curl her hair, then we spent some time trick or treating downtown with my family. What a fun afternoon!













Our school had a Masquerade Ball one Friday evening. I worked a booth selling candy for QUEST, while Grace and my parents enjoyed the music and friends. Grace and several of her Pre-K buddies danced and danced, and she was so tired by the end of the night!











We finally got around to carving our pumpkin a few days before Halloween. Much to DJ's dismay, we made a smiley face Jack 'O Lantern. Grace dived right in and helped scoop out the pumpkin guts, and even ate some of the pumpkin chunks!














The Friday before Halloween, she wore her special Halloween outfit to school and went trick or treating around the classrooms. Her class also had a Halloween party with lots of goodies!







Trick or Treatin' pictures coming next!
