Whew.
I'm pretty sure Halloween has caused more of a spike in our social calendar than I anticipated. But I guess these sweet smiles are worth all the running around.
Our week kicked off with the annual Fall Festival at the girls' school. The kiddos get to dress in their costumes, enjoy some pizza, play games and eat entirely too much sugar.
The parents get to half-way pay attention to their kids because ALL OF THEIR TEACHERS ARE THERE!
I'd call that a win.
There is also a chili cook-off and not to brag, but Ryan was the big winner. Since he couldn't make it, Radley accepted the prize on his behalf (it's hidden behind that fantastic costume.) (Yes, that's his entire costume.) Ryan has "battled" back and forth with one of our friends for the last four years - they keep trading 1st and 2nd place.
The night is really a great way for the kiddos to enjoy a safe celebration of a fun tradition.
Mills wasn't fooling around with her coloring.
By the end of the night, we had colored 1000 small pictures, pinned the nose on a pumpkin, and eaten too much candy.
Oh and made giant messes with our besties.
We took a break on Wednesday and then celebrated some more tonight at MSC Hospitality's annual Halloween Party! They moved the event outside this year and it couldn't have been more perfect.
Radley conquered the ring toss...
and was clearly thrilled at this feat.
Landry had no problem putting a spider back in his web (because her eyes were open)...
and Emmy was pretty darn good at the bean bag toss.
There was more coloring...
some eyeball touching…
and of course a ton of smiles.
Now let's bring on Halloween!!
