Halloween Weekend!

This Halloween weekend was quite eventful and fun for us! We did so much which did tend to make us SO tired when Sunday came rolling around. Halloween is a favorite holiday of ours and have made it a tradition to go to the pumpkin Patch for a fun family activity! Because the weather has been rainy when we actually planned to go, we had to hold it off til this Friday! Nonetheless, we did go even though it was a little late. We ended up going to Wheeler Farm in Murray and it wasnt that great for us. Maddie had fun seeing all the farm animals they had though! For the first time she actually connected COW and MOO together!! Every time we went by the cows she would repeatedly say.. "COW...MOOOOOO!" We did go through a little Hay stack cornmaze that followed to all the pumpkins. It was fun for Maddie to run through it and boy did she get into it! SHe is so smart! Everytime she went into a deadend she came back out and tried to go through it all. We had a good time but think we will need to find a better pumpkin patch next year! That night we went up to Nana's house and made Caramel Apples! I thought it was fun and it was the first time for me to do it. But the caramel turned so hard too fast there wasnt much ENJOYING the treats. But Maddie and her cousin Kamryn had fun dipping the apples, and thats whats important:) On Saturday, we really enjoyed dressing Maddie up in her costume as MINNIE MOUSE!! She was SO adorable and had fun running around in her dress!! We went trick-or-treating in Grandma Hewletts neighborhood for a bit, ate a little dinner, went out for a little bit more, then headed up to Nana and Grandpa Spendlove's house to see cousins and tirck-or-treating up there at a few houses. We went with her cousins Kamryn and Kaidyn and boy was Kaidyn a HIT!! He went as Russell, The little Scout Kid from the Movie UP and Boy does he look JUST like him!! It was hilarious! Almost EVERY house we went to they asked my sister if they could take a picture of Kaidyn cause they just couldnt believe how much he really does look like the Russell kid! That and he was too cute! It was so fun to see Maddie go for her first time. The first few houses she just looked confused and people would put the bowl down for her to take one, and she would be shy and slowly pick one. Later on she got into it quickly and would grab handfuls! It was hilarious. We really enjoyed Halloween this year and seeing all her cousins in their fun costumes. Katlynn was Ariel (when she is human) Kamryn was rapundzzel princess, Bronson was a Steelers Football Player, And Kaidyn was of course, Russell from UP! Because of different schedules we sadly missed seeing Hallie, cole and Jackie and Jordan though! But I heard that Hallie was Jessie and Cole was Buzz. Jackie was Cleopatra and Jordan was Woody. Im sure they were so cute!! This was such a fun holiday to start the Holiday season with and I am so excited for this time of year to be with Family and friends! Cant wait for the next couple holidays to shortly come! Todd and Maddie looking at the Ducks. Todd and Maddie looking at the Cows. Maddie on the Cornmaze. Me and Maddie doing the Maze.
