Halloween fun

It was technically Katie's 2nd Halloween, but she didn't really participate in her 1st (she was 1 month old). After working 13-15 hour days last week, I left early on Friday because I couldn't miss Halloween! We weren't sure if Katie would understand (and she probably didn't), but she had a blast anyway!

Grandma and Grandpa came over and Katie was a little scared to see Grandma in a big orange pumpkin. She eventually realized it was Grandma and had to keep touching her to make sure.
Grandpa did wear a coconut bra and grass skirt (for about 10 seconds). Luckily, I got it on camera.

We dressed Katie up in her "tulip fairy" costume and let her play with our treats, before we passed them out. This year I added little containers of Play Doh for the kids that were too small for candy. It was a BIG hit!

Katie ran around the neighborhood with Daddy and Grandma and collected a pumpkin full of candy. She loved looking out the front door for more trick or treaters and loved staying up late. Thanks for the candy, Katie! YUM!
Even Baby Jamey came over to visit in his warm dragon costume! We can't wait for next year!

Katie looks so cute as a tulip and I loved your parents' costumes--especially your dad's! It must be fun to have Melissa so close. Looks like you guys had a great Halloween!

Katie was adorable in her tulip fairy costume. I loved the way she 'winged' the candy around before it ever made it into the kids trick-or-treat bags. It was great fun spending the Halloween night with her.
