Halloween '17

I thought I had a pretty great idea for our Halloween costumes this year. We like to plan way in advance and coordinate with the three of us. Kadee had a lot of important input this year as well (NOT!). I worked on most of it and Kadee just watched. Our characters were perfect for us since I'm so short and Spencer is tall, and well... Kadee is the princess.







Plus! We won in the "best couples costume" category. 

We had lots of fun with our costumes at the trunk or treat. I made it so the mustaches would come off easily to eat dinner. And they stuck on pretty well too. Kadee and I also joined Spencer at institute in costume. Actually, I was making the institute lunch again so it made it even easier for us to show up in costume! We had fun. We did not wear our mustaches to institute since we were there to eat lunch.




I wasn't going to take Kadee out on Halloween night to trick-or-treat, but a friend who lives close asked us to go with them so we went for a little while. We lasted long enough to get to 5 or 6 houses and then it was too cold for Kadee to continue. Plus it was way past her bed time. She loved it though. She got to hang out with some kids and see a few puppies at the houses we went to. One lady was super nice and let the kids see the puppy. I think that it was made it worth it for Kadee, not the candy.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Fall Family Fun

*Warning: I took A LOT of pictures*

With the help of my friend Google, we found a fun pumpkin patch to go to. Park Hurst Pumpkin Patch. It was a little ways away but totally worth it. Kadee had so much fun! She was kind of tired and grumpy on the way there. In fact, she fell asleep with less than 10 minutes to go. But I think her little power nap helped her to fully enjoy herself. Because she did. I knew she would like it. We didn't do the hay ride, but we had fun with the petting zoo and the corn maze and the play forts and the hay. 





The geese were super loud but I think all of the other animals were just tired.

The hay and the slides (in my observing opinion) were Kadee's favorite part. Although, the animals were super awesome too. She was a little wary of the slide at first, she just likes to climb on the bottom and sit on it, but I think she grew to like it more.






This is probably my favorite picture ever!

They also had some little tepee things which Kadee had fun running around in. I stood on one side and Spencer stood on the other, and Kadee would just run back and forth between the two.
  


I have to call this one my second favorite picture.

And we played in the corn maze. Kadee just wanted to touch and pull on all the corn.





We were going to push her around but she was more content to just sit there.

On the way out we picked out our pumpkins to take home. We let Kadee pick. But I think she just wanted to eat them because she sure tried to.


On the way home we stopped at Pops 66. It's a super cool soda place. One of the ladies working there told Spencer (since it was our first time) that we should come back on a week day when it's not super crowded. I think we shall.


By this time Kadee was very tired, ready to go home, and very ready for bed.
