Halloween Weekend

We had a lot of fun this past weekend. Ruby got to dress up several times, party, and go trick or treating.

Friday we had a pumpkin painting (although we were late and missed that part) playdate with some friends that we used to have baby playdates with. Ruby was very happy to dress up in her Cinderella costume that she borrowed from her friend Ellory.

I tried to make Telia one of the little mice friends that Cinderella has but not so sure it worked out for us.

Saturday we went to a fun, outdoor, family friendly Halloween party with friends from Sojourn. We convinced our 3 year old that she didn't want to be Cinderella but rather.....wait for it.......Gangrene (like a gang that is green). Needless to say we didn't win a prize for this but at least we did something...2 hours before the party we weren't even dressing up. Thanks Ems/Quillo's/Quillo's for the awesome time. Ruby said her favorite part was the hayride.

Brian showing Ruby how to roast a marshmallow all the while wondering if a flaming marshmallow was going to come flying from one of the other kids' sticks. He thought this was the scariest part of the evening.

And on Halloween evening we decided last minute to take Ruby trick or treating in our neighborhood. We are so glad that we went out and got to talk to some of the neighbors. Ruby loved giving candy away and going up to doors to say "trick or treat."
