Last Thursday the Student Union had a Children's Carnival for homecoming week. We decided to try out the ol' pig costume. She looks super enthused, wouldn't you agree?
Logan & Madeline joined in on the fun with us.
All in all it was a great people-watching exercise for all. Our kiddos we're a tad young to participate in the games, but next year that will change.
R carved her first pumpkin. And I say "carve" meaning, sort of helped Chad scoop out the guts. She loved working her spoon.
I was selected to host another House Party (this is my sixth!) and this one was sponsored by no other than Rice Krispies. Friday night we made the treats and got all the supplies ready for some down and dirty decoratin'. Kellogg's provided four boxes of Rice Krispies, a mixing bowl, chef's hat, and enough spatulas for all party goers to take one home with them.
I only used three of the four Rice Krispie boxes provided, so the fourth box went to the lucky winner of the "Best Decorated Treat." The boys decided, and it was unanimous. Jenny's cat took the cake, err, I mean treat?
Sunday brought our church's first annual "Trunk or Treat"! We had a blast decorating the bed of Chad's pickup, eating popcorn, bouncing in the bounce house, and listening to "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown". Oh yeah, and Popeye & Olive Oyl dusted off their costumes from six years ago and made an appearance as well.
We were strategically placed across from the "Boo-k Store" where they were giving away books. Riley was magnetized towards this area all evening.
All of this, and it's not even Halloween yet!!! Only two more days and we can start celebrating Christmas, right? ;)
