Halloween Fun

We had a busy Halloween weekend and we didn’t even make it out trick or treating tonight. Friday we went down to the annual Hilloween festival near Eastern Market. We decided it was overrated, and we probably won’t go back next year. Even though we got there pretty early, it got crowded quickly and was geared towards older kids. There were 2 moon bounces, so we stood in line for one. Reagan was so excited about going in it, we literally had to hold her back from running in. Once she got in, some bigger kids bounced her, she fell down, and completely lost it. That was about the end of the fun, and it was cold, so we went home. But, it was a good trial run for the costume.

The consensus after event 1 was, she didn’t want to put the bee on, but once it was on, she was okay. And the headband, which will not be in any of the pictures, was an absolute no.

Friday night, Ted arrived and we had some costume finalizing building to do. Tim was finishing the flower and pot, the boys were in charge of the honey pot lid, and I finished the honey pot.

you are amazing, Sus. I don't even own a sewing machine much less really know how to use one.
