Halloween Week

I don't know about the rest of you moms of 4 yr. olds out there, but at this house it felt like Halloween lasted all week long. Well actually it all started on Wed. Taylee has this thing I call music preschool and basically any moms with kids about 5 or younger can come for free to this group at the church and this lady in my ward has all the songs and materials to do this little preschool with lots of singing. Anyway, she got to dress up for that...

Ellie has actually been coming with us the past few times and this day was her actual birthday so it was so fun to bring her along. The two witch girls...

After it was over Kelli, the lady from my ward, brought donuts and apple juice yum!

Then after a quick lunch it was off to Ellie's costume birthday party....


The next day was real preschool and she got to dress up for this too. They put on a Halloween parade and program for us. Here they are doing the 5 Little Pumpkins fingerplay...

Here her teacher is reading/singing a Halloween song with the kids that is like the 12 Days of Christmas. I just have to put in a proud mommy moment, Taylee is so different then she used to be. She participates, sings and is happy. It was so so fun to watch and see how much she is enjoying herself!

Another spooky Halloween song...

After the program they got yummy cookies.

Taylee, Conner and Brynlee in the back.

Halloween here was on Saturday. That morning we had practice for our Primary Program (which Taylee did awesome at by the way) and then we decided to carve some more pumpkins. We did this earlier at Tiff's, but Aaron wasn't there and the pumpkin we did was already rotten so we went at it again, this time with Andy, Bonnie and Daddy.

Digging in...

Taylee with another scary face pumpkin. I don't think there has been a year yet that she hasn't wanted a scary pumpkin. Funny girl.

Mine and Bonnie's. (Mine says trick or treat if you can't tell)

Andy's and Taylee's/Aaron's

Getting ready for Halloween night... krimpy crazy witch hair!!

All dressed and ready to go!

A quick stop at the Crabtree's to see all the cousins...
Love that ladybug!

A witch, a vampire and a power ranger...

Pumpkin Holland, Batman Quinton, Tay the witch, Tiger Weiland, and Ellie the witch. They were all so cute!

Freaky....

I just love him....

Aaron and Andy manned the trunk while Bonnie and I took Taylee around. Aaron's bowl had slimmy noodles and Andy had the good stuff. Aaron would tell them they could take a whole handful so they would reach in and grab a huge handful of noodles. The boys got a kick out of this and it was pretty funny to watch!

Taylee and Daddy looking at the loot. Taylee was done after like two rows of cars. She saw she had some tootsie rolls and she was good to go. We had a great Halloween, hope you all did too!
