We started it off on Friday at AEH's school. They had a Hoe-Down all morning and the families were invited to come. EMH actually had a Halloween party at his school at the same time so it worked out good that he could just come to this and we could all be in one place. It started at 8:30 and ended after lunch. The kids dressed in their cowgirl and cowboy outfits and enjoyed a morning full of fun activities.
They started off singing some songs outside on a stage. EMH and I barely made it! We were walking up as they were singing their last song. AEH was scanning the crowd to see where we were. This is when she spotted us. Boy, am I glad I made it! Well sort of made it. ;)
Next was the square dancing in the gym. EMH even participated, but only while I was dancing with them. Hence why I have no pictures of us.
This was probably her favorite. The hay ride! She enjoyed sitting with her friends! EMH enjoyed it too.
As we were getting off, SLH had arrived and was waiting for us. AEH was so excited to see him!
We went inside to their class room and they colored a piggy bank. AEH's didn't make it home with her because she accidentally dropped it as she was getting on the bus. :(
Yes, I dressed for the occasion. Aunt Suzi let me borrow her hat and I wore my cowboy boots.
Brother was enjoying some skittles while they painted their pigs. He also wore his cowboy boots.
Next they took a class picture.
Their favorite,the funny one!
The last thing they did before their picnic lunch was watching and learning how a horse is fitted for horse shoes. They were very intrigued by this, as were the parents. It looked so painful for the horse but they promised that the horse didn't feel a thing.
Saturday night was our trick or treat night. We had an interesting combination.
Princess Leia and a Dalmatian dog.
As you can tell in the above photo, our dog wasn't sure about his costume. Meme and Ampy had stopped by to see them and bring some goodies. With Meme's help and waving some candy in front of our dog, we finally got a little smile out of him.
To no surprise, our Princess Leia was ready for the night!
AEH has a friend in her class at school that lives in our neighborhood and they invited us to trick or treat with them. We went on a hay ride with them around the neighborhood.
EMH loved it! He kept saying "I get candy".
AEH's friend also has a brother the same age as EMH, so they had fun trick or treating together as well.
AEH and her friend had a blast running from house to house getting candy.
This was taken as AEH would say, "the real Halloween day", on Sunday morning before church.
Like I said last year, it will be interesting to see what they choose to be for Halloween next year!
