Halloween

Our Halloween festivities started a week before with Brooklyn and I painting the pumpkins we got at the pumpkin patch and also the one she got out of Pop's garden.  She had so much fun painting with her new paints.

The Thursday before Halloween was her preschool Halloween party.  They let the kids dress up and they played a bunch of games and went trick-or-treating.  She was so excited to tell me what all of her friends had dressed up as.

On Sunday, Brooke threw a Halloween party for all the Moss clan that live in town.  The kids all had such a blast.  She made a yummy dinner and had 3 desserts to choose from and then had games for the kids to play.  First they did a pumpkin toss with the little pumpkin candies into cauldrons, then they played Halloween twister (which Brooklyn was surprisingly really good at), and then they got to hit a witch pinata. Brooklyn was so excited to take a whack at the pinata.  She loved seeing her cousins all in their costumes and getting to play with them for a few hours.  The party was definitely a success.

On Monday (actual Halloween) my parents watched the kids while Craig and I went to a movie and then when we picked them up we got Brooklyn ready for trick-or-treating.  She was excited that Tiffy and her kids stopped by and that she got to see them in their costumes.  We then headed over to Eric and Kim's house to trick-or-treat with their family.  Their street really knows how to do Halloween.  I couldn't believe how many people there were.  Brooklyn had so much fun running from house to house.  McKay just slept in the stroller and then I went back to Eric and Kim's house to feed him while Craig finished with Brooklyn.  Brooklyn was so sad when the night was over, but was so happy with her candy stash.  She is already asking when Halloween is going to come again, I'm surprised she hasn't choose her costume yet.  Maybe next year we will actually dress McKay up too.
