Halloween

We had a blast Halloween night!  We went to a friend's house down the street for a pizza party and then trick or treated.  It was a big group of friends.



It took Abby a while to figure out how to fit in the wagon in her big costume.
 Our friends borrowed a golf cart for little legs that got tired.  The kids took turns riding it.  Our houses are not very close together so this really helped the younger kids.
 We borrowed the wagon from Nonnie and Pops and Abby and Caroline rode in it quite a bit.  I got rid of ours as we rarely used it, so we were glad they still had one for us to use.

Brent rigged Caroline's wings right before the sun went down.

 The fire department came by and handed out glow necklaces and bracelets.

 This man had a fire pit in his driveway.

 There was a loud "Trick or Treat" when doors opened.

 Abby and Caroline were very excited to have their turn on the golf cart.



 We loved that you could see Tink's wings light up. 
 

 After filling up their jack-o-lanterns half way, Abby and Caroline requested to go home and hand out candy.  It was a nice way to end the evening!





Rapunzel

Abby was Rapunzel for Halloween and had a book parade at school Halloween morning.
 It was a little chilly that morning.  Caroline came with us to see the parade before school.


 Nonnie and Pops came to cheer for Rapunzel.

 I think Abby had fun being in her first parade and it was a fun way to start our Halloween day!

Tink

The Thursday before Halloween, Caroline, also known as Tink, was off to her school carnival!  It was a gorgeous day for the event.
Caroline picked her costume for the light up wings.  We had some minor drama the night before this carnival, as they would not twinkle.  Thankfully, dear old daddy came to the rescue and rigged them for the carnival and again on Halloween night.  He thinks they had a short in them.  
 
Class Pics

 I worked a game booth, so my sidekick, Nonnie, came to take some pics of Caroline.





 The teachers were all dressed up as minions.


 Caroline adored this bunny and  . . .

  . . . would have fed this goat all day!
