Halloween

Here are some pictures from our Halloween festivities last week. Kaitlyn was Tigger, in honor of her beloved stuffed animal. First, there was Trunk or Treat at our church on Sunday afternoon. It was a zoo with all the kids there! Kaitlyn was a little overwhelmed and didn't smile the whole night. But she picked up on the whole candy-in-your-pumpkin idea pretty quickly and eagerly ran from car to car to get treats. She even got an orange balloon, which was the highlight of her evening. When she got home, she spent lots of time gleefully dumping out the contents of her pumpkin and putting every piece of candy back in. She didn't show any interest in actually eating the candy, but I'm sure that will come in the years ahead. Meanwhile, the candy seems to be mysteriously disappearing from her pumpkin. I have no clue where it's going :)

Then Jeff's parents came into town for a quick visit. We carved a pumpkin while they were here and Kaitlyn was very interested in the glowing jack-o-lantern.

Kaitlyn got to spend Halloween weekend with Gran while Mommy and Daddy went on a little weekend getaway. Gran and Papa Bell took her trick-or-treating, and from what I hear, Kaitlyn had a great time. She came home with even more candy!

Here are some more pictures of Kaitlyn in her costume.
