Happy Halloween and Thanksgiving

As usual, a little late in posting updates so here's a combined Happy Halloween and Thanksgiving!  

For Halloween, we did the obligatory trip to the pumpkin patch and dressed the child in the cute outfit with the hat that they hate.  She did enjoy the pumpkin patch - particularly the slides and ducks at the petting zoo.  We went a little late in the season so there were slim pickings at the patch.  We checked out the inventory, but didn't actually pick a pumpkin - don't think that she noticed.







She had a great time on Halloween handing out candy to kids in our front yard.  We decided to skip the house to house trick or treating - maybe next year.  My phone died on Halloween and I didn't grab the camera so I don't have great pictures of her cute owl costume, which she did wear for part of the night.



We stayed in town for Thanksgiving since it's just too hard to travel over the holiday weekend with a toddler.  Luckily, my sister was able to come down from New York to spend the weekend with us.  We spent the day at the home of some wonderful friends and had about 8 adults and 4 kids fill the house.  Tons of great food and stuffed adults - the kids mainly chowed down on the Jello salad.
