Happy Halloween!

While Covid forced us to tweak some of our Halloween traditions, we managed to plan a fun full day of activities for the girls that they really seemed to enjoy!

We started off the morning with Halloween pancakes (I added orange and black sprinkles).  Then we presented Kaitlyn with Hershey's Spooky House kit.  I helped her get the structure together.  Then while she decorated; Kevin, Kenzie, and I snuggled on the couch and read Kenzie's Halloween books.

Kevin made reservations at Unos for their kids' Halloween party.  While our lunch was being made, the girls decorated pumpkins and Mommy and Daddy had some margaritas!

Then we went to Halloween at Hadlock.  This was the first time they've ever done this event and it was great.  They even gave to parents bags for trick or treating, haha.  The candy was dropped down tubes.  There were photo stops and some of the Sea Dogs sponsors had trick or treating tables (Oakhurst had chocolate milk and we got whoopie pies from Wicked Whoopies).  Kenzie was obviously only there for her Slugger! 

We stopped at the courtyard of Mammy's apartment and Paul and Michelle's house for some trick-or-treating, but those were our only two "house" stops this year.

As you can see, Kaitlyn decided to be an astronaut again this year!

Kenzie picked her own costume (we held up three choices for her and she pointed at Kaitlyn's hand me down kitty costume!).  She wouldn't wear the ears though, haha.

The father of one of Kaitlyn's best friends is the pastor at a church down the street.  Every year they do a trunk-or-treat.  This year they turned it into a drive thru trunk-or-treat! It was great... completely free, just had to reserve a time!  

One of the cars was giving out balloon animals.  Obviously, that was Kenzie's favorite!

Then it was home for a Halloween dinner of Mummy Dogs, Taco Dip, and Dirt!

Kenzie was exhausted and fell right to sleep, but Kaitlyn got to stay up late and watch Ghost Nation!

This morning, we went over to Smiling Hill Farm for a tractor ride and to see the animals.  We made reservations for the tractor ride (which is completely accessible with a ramp!), so we were the only ones on it and didn't have to wear masks.  Although she loved the ride (particularly when we went up and down hills), a certain little turd wouldn't smile whenever I took out the camera!  Daddy had to make faces at her!

Milk is good for your bones... at least according to this skeleton!

Baby cows!
