Months ago, Cora found the cutest Candy Girl costume at B to B and that kicked off this year's Candyland theme. We modified Dave's old Gingerbread Man costume (since he swore he wasn't going to need it again) and scored the rest of our gear at B to B. I was pretty proud of myself and the girls bought into my theme for the first couple of events then they were ready to move on. Good thing we have an entire dress up trunk!
Throughout the month of October had lots of dress up opportunities:
The school carnival was a blast and Eden even won a 2 liter of orange pop in the cake walk!
Indie was a super big hit and the dental school trick or treating. She wasn't interested in candy, but loved all the high-fives.
We tried the downtown trick or treating on a beautiful day, but it was crowded so we headed to the park and loved chatting with Annabelle's family.
Halloween Eve we got to carve pumpkins. listen to music, and eat pumpkin pizza inside our toasty home.
The girls got to parade around school on Halloween. Indie and I got to walk with the girls then bounce around from party to party!
On Halloween, Cora finally chose a new costume since she was decidedly over her Candy Girl costume, then we met our neighbors outside for a chilly trick or treating adventure (it even snowed!) We went through college heights on the girl's predetermined route. Everyone started off skipping from house to house, but Dave brought the car because he was worried it might not last the whole night haha. I offered Indie a ride with Dave in the toasty car, but she insisted that I carry her around and include her in the chilly family fun. What a little nut! After an hour and half, Cora's hands got cold, then Eden decided she was ready to just eat candy, and Milan finished the route with neighbors. When everyone was back home, the girls combined their treats on the floor and Indie spun around in her own little candy heaven. It was seriously one of the best nights! I loved watching the girl's excitement, chatting with friends, laughing with Dave, and tucking in exhausted little ladies.
