Pre - Halloween Activities

Part 2

I think it's fair to say that Claire took part in every "pre - Halloween" activity possible. Along with going to the pumpkin patch and "Halloween Farm", she got photos taken in her costume (by muah), took many nature hikes, and spent the week before Halloween doing the following:

Decorating cookies with her cousins.
She was the first to start and last one to finish. Not because she was slow, but because she wanted to decorate tons of cookies. She did pretty well with the frosting, but once her older cousin arrived, mayhem ensued (as expected). Candy was everywhere. Piled on top of the cookies and handfuls of it in the mouth. They definitely had a blast.



Painting her "punkin patch".
Claire calls every pumpkin a "punkin patch" and I get a kick out of it every time. It's too cute. She was very excited to paint her "punkin patch" and was intrigued by all of the white and gold paint. I must say, it turned out beautiful!


Going to her cousins Trunk-or-Treat.
Unfortunately, we got there late so she only got candy from one car. My bad. This was my very first trunk-or-treat so I had no idea they ended so quickly. Thankfully, the kids didn't really care because food and games were waiting for us inside. My favorite was watching Claire try to eat a donut on a string. She tried her hardest to get a bite but it just kept hitting her in the face. Daddy helped her eventually.

 
 
Phew!
Are you worn out yet?

Claire's the cutest little strawberry that I've ever seen. Sounds like you both had lots and lots of fun.
