Lazy Sunday & Trick or Treat ~ Bloomington, Indiana ~ Dreams Do Come True Photography

When we took the girls to Macy's, I was going so that I could get Josie a new pair of Christmas PJ's. She had outgrown hers and wanted another pair. She found a nightgown that she liked and Kayla had to have it also. So as soon as we got home from eating at Applebee's, I had to wash their new PJ's so they could match that night for bed.

She had a lazy Sunday morning. She threw up for the first time ever on Friday night. And she did a good job, it went everywhere, including herself and Mommy! She was fine all day on Saturday and fine while Kayla was still at the house on Sunday morning. But after Kayla left, all she wanted to do was sit in the chair and watch TV. Including eating her lunch in the chair with her blankie.

Even Gertie got in on that action, and took over the couch, my blanket and pillows. I love how if you look really close, you can see one of her eyes open looking at me like, "What are you doing?"

After Daddy got home from hunting we took off to go Trick or Treat for this year. We left the house around 2:00 in the afternoon and including supper, we got home around 8:30 that night. She was still raring to go though!

She wouldn't let me put her hair up, cause Rapunzel says "Let your hair down!" Hence the wild crazy hair!

3 days left until Halloween, guess we better carve the pumpkin!

I don't know how, but I always get the job of cleaning out the pumpkin snot!

Photo of said pumpkin snot!

Daddy always gets to carve the face out. Josie colors on it with a marker and then he carves it!

Our finished pumpkin! I didn't have any candles around the house, so we used one of Josie's flashlights. I put it in a baggie and turned it on. Worked pretty well!
She wouldn't let us take the pumpkin outside after we carved it. I let it stay in the house for a few days, and just couldn't take the gnats anymore, so I snuck it out.
It is now sitting right next to our front door, cause she doesn't want it to get rained on. I told her we needed to throw it away cause it had "black" (mold) on the inside and she still won't let go.
I might have to sneak it over the hill, now!

Awana Trick or Treat ~ Bloomington, Indiana ~ Dreams Do Come True Photography

The kids got to wear their costumes this year to Awana. Josie had her Rapunzel costume, Kayla was Cinderella and Riley was a 4 wheeler rider. However, Riley said he was not going to wear his helmet and gloves to church. And asked Michelle what the point of dressing up was. Aw, man..... He's outgrowing it!

Mama Carole even put makeup on the girls. Michelle said they looked like prostitutes, but I thought it was cute!

Monster ~ Bloomington, Indiana ~ Dreams Do Come True Photography

I had a pair of gloves that were from when Mike was little. Josie was afraid of them last year so I didn't get to use them anywhere. This year I got them out and stuffed them with papertowel, shut them in the bathroom window as if they were coming out the window. Josie was afraid at first but after a couple nights of seeing them she thought they were funny.
She always wanted her photo taken under them and everytime she asked, I didn't have my good camera handy. So here's one with my phone.

Apple-Works ~ Trafalagar, Indiana ~ Dreams Do Come True Photography

Sunday we took the kids to Apple-Works. They had fun, but I was dissapointed! They said they closed at 7:00, but not really. Everything is put up, animals and all around 6:30. And they were out of Apple Fritters! My biggest dissapointment.

But it was alot of fun this year with Josie. She was running around the patch, trying to find a pumpkin she could carry. Kayla was fun, but Riley may be getting too old for it. He was kind of in the "iffy" stage. He wanted to have fun, but he also thought he was too big for it.

Their pickings

Riley definately enjoyed the Apple launching!
