October Fun

We had a whirlwind of fun this October that began with daddy coming and continued thrugh Emma's birthday on the 23rd! Emma turned four and celebrated many times. She took cupcakes to school and got "to wear a special birthday hat." She also celebrated with just the immediate family and got so many presents. I've been telling both girls that once Emma turned 4, they could try chewing gum. So when I took Kailyn shopping to buy presents for her sister, gum was at the top of her list. She also bought her a barbie for the bath tub, bubbles, craft papers, a jump rope etc.

THEN....GRANDMA CAME!!! Grandma came down the weekend of Halloween and we took her to our church for the Fall Festival. They had a wonderful, free program including bounce houses, trunk or treating (which was so cool!) and a comedian entertainer man. Emma wouldn't stop dancing the whole night which was hilarious when the man on 10 foot stilts walked by, cuz he was trying to dance too! And Kailyn just couldn't get enough of her Grandma. She is such a grandma's girl! They both enjoyed face painting too, done my the husband of my best friend Amy from high school...she lives her too now...small world. :)
To complete our month we went to a local wildlife center called Oatland Island where they did a nighttime, slighly lit, creepy trick or treating trail. We could hear the wolves howling, which was only slightly creepy. But the girls loved it and Jason's fire department was out there with the trucks so the girls got to climb all over them again, which they adore.
