Halloween!


Happy Halloween!

Cool chic.

Aside from a little illness this weekend, I'd say my second Halloween was pretty successful. Did you know that it is just kids hiding under those really scary faces? (Took me a little to figure that out until one boy took the time to show me.) I really enjoy going to people's doors and asking for candy. I often confused "please" for "trick-or-treat" when Mommy would prompt "What do you say?" but no one seemed to mind too much. I occasionally threw out a "Your Welcome" when a "Thank you" was due as well, but again, no one minded :)

Finally, I most enjoyed passing out the candy to other kids. After walking around one block, I decided it was time to be at home. I loved sitting on the front porch (yes, it was a beautiful 70 degrees out) and putting candy in kids' bags/ buckets more than anything else all night.
Want candy?
Pumpkin Patch.
Last weekend, we ventured out to a local Pumpkin Patch where I had fun walking around with Jacob trying to find a the perfect pumpkin. We got to go on a hay ride, Daddy pulled us in a wagon, we climbed on hay bails with scarecrows, and just followed each other around trying to pick up pumpkins. It was GREAT!
Two toddlers to pose? Ha!
Finally, they both look. (Hay ride)

Ewww.

This weekend, we finally carved them. I'll let you watch the videos, but my saying this year was; "Can't do it. Daddy do it." My true artistic ability came through when Mommy got out Markers though!





This week, we are excitedly getting ready for my Nana and Papa to come and visit me. Mommy and Daddy are going on a little trip this weekend for their anniversary so they are going to stay with me... plus, I am going to be TWO and who would want to miss that?!?!

Love to you all! x

PS. I leave you with this last little bit (dark, but worth the smile you'll get:)

Awesome videos! I agree with Nana...her vocabulary is incredible! Cute, cute, cute lion costume too. Looks like a lot of fun around the Melton house, with plenty more to come in the next week.
