Trick or Treat 2013

Kate is Merida this year.  I made the costume and she looked so cute.  We bought a bow and Arrows at  Swiss Days and she was set! We even sprayed her hair red.
 We went to the Trunk or Treat at the church first with the Knights. Ady was a mermaid, Awstyn was a witch and Aspyn was a kitty.  Anastyn was sick.  She was supposed to be a horse but didn't feel good.  
After that, we went to trick or treat at houses.  Kate did not like that so we went to Susan's and Kathy's and came home.  It was a fun night despite the fact Kate got a little spooked!

Cute Halloween Girl!

The school does not allow the kids to dress in costume so this is what Kate wore to school today!  Love my girl!


Apple Picking

Kate and Adyson helped me pick apples today.  We had a bumper crop this year.  YUM!! Kate was the brave one and climbed into the tree to get the tall ones!

Fall Festival Party

Today was the Fall Festival at school.  Also known as the Halloween party.  Taylor and I helped.  We made crafts, played games and had treats.  It was lots of fun.  Kate and Adyson loved having their moms help.

Pumpkin Carving

Our pumpkins before the endeavor.
 And after... It was too messy to take pictures during the process.  Not willing to ruin the camera!
