Halloween

It's been a couple fun filled days celebrating Halloween. I found some pictures of this darling clown costume online and attempted to recreate it for Jenna's costume. It didn't turn out exactly like I had pictured, but pretty close. I think she looks darling, but realize I am completely biased.

We started by hitting the local church's "Trunk or Treat" on the 29th. Instead of going the traditional trick or treating from house to house, this seems to be what's happening more and more in our area. I guess to keep the kid's safe, but I much prefer the original. I hope we will continue to do both as Jenna gets older.

Then because the 31st fell on a Sunday, Halloween was celebrated on Saturday, the 30th. So in the afternoon we had a neighborhood costume parade. It was really a lot of fun. All the kids dressed up and then we just did a quick loop around the hood. Everyone seemed to enjoy it and we had a pretty good turn out.

Jenna did such a good job holding still during make-up.

She was pretty entertained by herself. Not that that is that unusual.

 

Then we headed over to Grandma Liisa's for Jenna's very first time Trick or Treating.

She started doing to this crazy rolling around is circles thing. It was absolutely cracking us all up. I tried to capture it on video.

It was a great night and I wouldn't change a thing about it. Every day I am more and more grateful for our little one. She is such a joy! Happy Halloween all. From one that is "So Cute It's Scary"
