Halloween

Abbie wanted to be a princess for Halloween this year.  She was a princess last year but I figured we have lots of princess dresses she can wear.  Halloween came and I asked her which dress she wanted to wear.  Of course, it was the same dress as last year.  She could not have picked one of the 3 other beautiful dresses to wear.  Doing my best to remind myself it really does not matter that we are wearing the same exact dress 2 years in a row.  I agreed and she got dressed.  Abbie had a great day and enjoyed trick or treating with her friends!  She has lots of candy for her parents to eat and even wanted to bring some to share with her friends at church!

Carving Pumpkins

I thought it would be fun to carve a pumpkin with Abbie this year.  Abbie was very excited about it!  Steve cut the top off of the pumpkin and then Abbie and I were going to clean the pumpkin out.  Abbie did not like the idea of getting her hands all dirty.  Once I gave her a spoon to use she helped a little with cleaning the pumpkin out.  In the end, Steve and I carved the pumpkin and Abbie watched!  But Abbie loved it and has talked about it non -stop since!

Fall Fun!

We took Abbie to the Farm to enjoy the festival!  Abbie loved the corn sandbox, slide, climbing the haystack, corn maze!  Steve and I loved the apple cider donuts and apple cider!!
Abbie got to take a pony ride too!  It was an extra treat to have Steve's parents with us for the trip!
