Fall Festivities

well Brynlee had her first "Halloween" dressing up and going trick-or-treating.  I made her costume.  she sure made the cutest cow I have ever seen!  I copied the idea from something I saw on Pinterest.  the original idea was being sold on Etsy for $70 some odd dollars.  whatever!  we don't pay that kind of money when we can do it ourself!  ;)

 we had our friends the Findley's come over and join us in our neighborhood to walk around.  their kids are Ella and Carson.  Ella was a fairy and Carson was the old man from Up.  they both looked adorable.  


we had a fun time.  it was a definite workout though chasing them all around.  we took the wagon with us but none of them wanted to ride it for long...of course!  and Brynlee ended up wanting to push Carson's house/balloons around.  she was a bit of a confused cow!

my favorite part of the night was when Brynlee decided she should share her candy.  so instead of taking the candy from a nice couple at one house, she started passing her candy to them.  they loved it and so did we!  (don't worry--we got the candy back!)

the next night we got to participate in the BCM "All Saints Party", so we got to dress up again.  i chose not to dress up, but here is what Chad came up with...

enough said.  :)

i don't really care for the holiday in general, but i loved dressing my girl up and the good fellowship with friends!
