Halloween!

Gracie and Caden went trick-or-treating for the first time in Haskell last weekend! We've taken Gracie to our Fall Festival but not trick-or-treating door-to-door. Being the most forgetful person in the world, I forgot Gracie's Lucy costume. I know, I know, I'm a terrible mother. Somehow, I did get Caden's Charlie Brown outfit, so I'm 1-2. Anyway, I had to think of something for Gracie to be so she could go trick-or-treating. I went to THE dollar store in Haskell and they had NO costumes. I didn't want to spend alot of money, so I decided to get creative. I did pack her PJ's and the dollar store had some ribbon, a crown, and a princess wand all for a dollar, so she became (drum roll please): Sleeping Beauty. Get it, PJ's and a crown with a sash? It was the best I could do for $3 in Haskell.







Caden was a little sleepy, but he did pretty well.


Our first house. Somehow, we got her to say "trick-or-treat"!




She liked getting the candy!
Dad was our driver, so we went up to the hospital so he could show off his grandkids! The nurses always have candy on Halloween.




It was fun! I know that she will be looking forward to it next year! And maybe the year after that, Caden will be excited about it, too!

Creative, with a lot of spunk. You are a great mom, I would have given up and stayed home:)
