We survived Halloween 2014! You both did great! The week started with Family Pizza and Pumpkin night. Papa John's delivered our favorites and we dove into both the pizza and the pumpkins right in the garage. Leah, this was your first time to use the little orange saw to do your own creative art work on a pumpkin. You weren't a fan of the orange goop inside, but you sure liked the saw. You started with a unicorn pattern, but in the end you just went with a goofy face.
Logan, you did good too! You did your best to help daddy with every step. Ultimately, you just wanted to use the pumpkin like a bowling ball and roll them around the garage and driveway. But at age 2, you got your first real pumpkin experience, and maybe next year you can start cutting!
We cut pumpkins on Tuesday, so Halloween was just 3 days away. Leah, you had picked out your pink unicorn outfit a few weeks before Halloween. In fact, by the time the Halloween got here, you had already worn your costume 10 times. Logan, we really couldn't decide on what we wanted you to be. So Mommy got you a 'Woody' costume on the morning of Halloween. It was a little big, so we might be able to use it again in the future.
As a bonus, Grandma and Grandpa came to visit us on Halloween and walked with you the entire time. It was chilly that night, so it helped that you both ran the entire Muirwood subdivision. Leah, you already had one Trick-or-Treat session under you belt in 2013, but this was Logan's first real time. Logan, you kept up with sister all night! Plus, you did it while you struggled with how to hold your bag of candy..jpg)
Mommy added a pink cowgirl hat to your costume at the last minute, so a lot of our neighbors kept complimenting your 'pink pony'. Trust me- you were quick and stern to point out that 'its a unicorn!
The final highlight to the evening was that Daddy once again dusted off the Bert costume and added Sesame Street to our adventure.
The whole week was a success and you all ended up with a bunch of candy...half of which you ate the night you got it! Daddy might have snuck a couple pieces for himself, too! I'll pay you back one day.
Love you both...Leah's Birthday and Thanksgiving are coming in November.
Love,
Daddy
