Happy Halloween!

We had a fabulous Halloween this year with our little Leprechaun! It was nice that Colin was old enough to participate and have fun, but still young enough that we didn't have to go to all 400 houses in the neighborhood. Hurray!

We kicked off Halloween this year on Saturday with a costume contest at Publix. Colin came in first place for his age group! He won a piano toy, some bath toys, and lots of tasty treats. Then we headed to the Painted Pony for the church party. The kids got to see farmyard animals (chickens, goats, cows, pigs), have a cookout, make smores around a fire, AND ride a pony!! What fun! Colin was one of the littlest ones there, but he wasn't scared a bit to get up on that horse. He rode twice and loved every minute. He was even waving to his Daddy, Nanny, and Grandma as the horse took him around the field.

Sunday, we all got dressed in costume and went door to door trick-or-treating! Grandma and Papa came over to hand out candy while we walked around the neighborhood with Aunt Erin and Elijah and Aunt Amber and Josiah! Ok, now what you've all been waiting for....PICTURES!!
