Happy Halloween! (Warning Picture Overload)




Bad that it's been over a week since my last post! We have moved into a new place, but more of that in the next post. So we'll start with Halloween. We started the festivities the day before with a church trunk or treat. The weather was so nice the whole weekend, like mid 60's. We rode our bikes so our trunk was the bike trailer. Thomas got the whole idea really quickly and even though he was very quiet, people loved him and Grace. We ran into Thomas good friend Sale, they were not too aware of each other.
Grace was such a cute butterfly, and she is walking everywhere now, so fun!
The next day we went downtown for the Main Street Trick or Treat. There were so many people there, we didn't hit it all because the kids were tired of waiting in line. Not so fun, but one place gave away full sized candy bars. That made my day!Later we went to a fancy restaraunt with some friends, the kids were great and it was really fun. After dinner we thought we would let Thomas experience "real" trick or treating door to door. Thomas was loving running house to house. We only did a few in our new subdivision, because it was getting kind of late for the kiddos. They loved meeting them though, and apparently hadn't had too many other trick or treaters so they hooked them up.

Grace loves suckers, and got a lot of them. Hope you had a great weekend!

Your kid's looked so great! I love how you did Thomas' face paint. Hope you're enjoying the new place.

CUTE, CUTE, CUTE! I love the little butterfly. Too bad Thomas's personality doesn't fit his costume! He's such a sweet thing. I like your hair in the picure you are in. It looks longer. Super fun!

Jenny Casey said...

So cute, Ashley! Don't the holidays get so much more fun as your kids get bigger? I love Halloween so much more after having kids, but it really makes me appreciate all the trick-or-treating my parents did with us...it's exhausting!!

Kristin and Seth said...

I LOVE their costumes - super cute! And Grace is walking now, how exciting! Was it difficult to to get Thomas' face painted so well? I'm way impressed, I couldn't even get a small amount of brown paint on Beck's nose...maybe when he's 3 :) Looks like you all had a great weekend!

Jack and Mel said...

take note: I posted a comment before RaeAnn!!
You didn't put enough pictures up. Grace is just getting cuter and cuter and Thomas is going to be a real tiger. So handsome. I thought that you and Nolan looked great in your masks.

Braydan and Jessica said...
