Happy Halloween!

We had a very successful Halloween weekend I would say. The weather was nice, the pumpkins turned out great, and Mizzou and Iowa both won. Here's a little wrap up of photos of the weekend.

Friday afternoon we headed to Tim's work for some "practicing" as Abby liked to call it. You might remember the fish costume...as long as Megan had her pacifier in she was okay with it.
Our fish and fisherwoman.
Doing a little pumpkin carving, quite detailed.
Grandma Schmidt and Great Grandma and Grandpa Dietz came in to town again for the festivities. Abby and Grandma were working on their Scary Witch.


All dressed up and ready to trick or treat. Abby did not keep the accessories on very long. They were too heavy and she needed to carry her "bucket".

The fish was content for her first wagon ride.
Posing by the pumpkins before we headed out.
The pumpkins at night.

And of course Megan's first Halloween shirt. This was at the end of the night before pajamas so she looks pretty worn out.

We actually had a pretty quick trick or treating run. Abby kept asking for candy for her baby sister and she got it so her bucket filled up pretty quickly and then she said she had enough and was done. We weren't going to argue so we headed go Barb & Frank's house for our last stop and then went home to count the loot. We'll have candy for weeks.

This will be a short week for us, Tim and I are off to Jamaica on Wednesday for Carrie Miller's wedding and the girls are off to Grandma and Grandpa Papke's house for the week. I think we'll be having fun all around.
We'll update when we return!

The kids look adorable! I'm kind of glad Halloween is over....ours drug out over at least 3 days, not to mention the hours Dave and I spent making Ava's costume!

Have fun in Jamaica....I'm hoping for a getaway sometime early next year! (2 weeks and 2 days!)
