Aly's parents are leaving on a cruise this Wednesday and will be gone for Halloween. All of the Grandkids were pretty disappointed that they wouldn't be here so we had a party tonight to celebrate an early Halloween. It was everything that Halloween should be (except for no Cinnamon Rolls) with Chili, Breadsticks, Broccoli Cheese Soup and Sugar Cookies
Gracie is having a hard time with "scary" dress up costumes. She doesn't understand the pretend part so when Isabelle gets the green makeup on she gets really scared. Tonight Parker and Ashley had scary costumes and she adjusted to them rather quickly, hopefully it will mean a good night trick-or-treating this weekend.
Earlier in the day we went and saw my Mom speak in church and then spent the afternoon there. We made Chili and Breadsticks for the Ferran party and then Grandma Barker helped do Isabelle's makeup. It was a busy day but the kids had a lot of fun dressing up and seeing their cousins' all dressed up. Maybe by this weekend I can convince Gracie to let me paint my face into something scary. Halloween is almost here, and today was a good reminder about how much fun this holiday is.
