Halloween 2012

I talked Richard into talking his boss into letting him have Halloween off and making it up on Friday when he wasn't scheduled to work. His boss of course said yes so Daddy got to spend the day celebrating with us.

We started off the morning with pumpkin shaped pancakes! Then we headed to the Library for the Halloween Party!
We first were read some spooky stories, then we had a costume parade through the library!

My cute little bunny parading around!

Every week I take her to the library, she always has to look at the turtles and sit on her favorite little black couch! Halloween was no exception...she had to show daddy the rounds.

See the turtles? She is obsessed with them!
Kinzie and Mommy!

Then we got to decorate sugar cookies! I frosted it for her, but she did the candy and sprinkles all by herself! Here's her masterpiece!!

The best part was that each kid was given a fun Halloween coloring packet with....a coupon for a Free Happy Meal from McDonald's! I love Free Stuff:) 

When we got home, she got this cute card in the mail from Grandma Sheri! It was filled with $2 and stickers! She loved it! Thanks mom!!!
 After her nap, we headed to Arbon for their Soup Bar and trunk-or-treat!
All dressed up and ready to go:)

This is what we gave out for treats this year!

Here's her candy stash (minus a few, seeing how I took the picture like 5 days after Halloween)!  We put the suckers/hard candies in a baggie and the chocolate treats in the bowl.

When we got home, we took her to a few more doors in our area so she could experience real trick-or-treating! She loved it so much and was so cute! In Arbon and here in town, she would walk up to the car/door, sign 'please', get her candy, and then sign 'thank you' (which she does by blowing you a kiss)! Everyone thought it was so cute, sometimes they even gave her more candy cuz they thought it was so cute she blew them a kiss. lol. She had so much fun dumping out her bag of candy and looking through it, then she would put it back in the bag, then dump it out again...she was in awe! She seemed so grown up and independent when she was trick-or-treating...makes me sad to realize just how grown up she's getting, but happy to see how far she's come, the things she's learned/learning, and how she's progressing. 
Hope you had a safe and Happy Halloween!
