Happy Halloween!

I am so excited to be taking the girls trick or treating tonight with other toddlers! It's the first time since V was born that I've been able to go with friends who have similarly aged kids. From now until forever, I'd like to dress the girls in matching costumes. This year, they'll be dressing up as Disney princesses. Normally I don't go for the whole Disney thing, but these outfits were too cute to pass up for the girls. V is Snow White and Baby A is Cinderella.

So far this year we've had two Halloween-ish events. We visited an adorable pumpkin patch in the area the weekend before last, and just last week we attended a Fall Fest put on at Hubster's Battalion.

Poppell Farms is a pumpkin patch and corn maze located about 45 from Fort Stewart. On the day that we went, they also had the fire department there so the kids were able to climb into all sorts of vehicles. I paid $7 for all of the farm games and the hayride and both girls were free. There were plenty of photo opportunities and kiddie activities. The hayride took us to the pumpkin patch where V was able to choose a pumpkin for us.





The past couple of weeks have been spent preparing for the Battalion Fall Fest. Each company was responsible for a booth and decorating a vehicle for trunk or treat. We were in charge of the costume contest. Thankfully I have amazing friends who helped with the girls so that I could run the booth. I was a bit sad that I didn't get to hangout with my babies though. At the end of the night, they played a movie for the kids on the jumbo screen. I didn't get many pics of Baby A because she was off hanging out with Soldiers.





Hopefully I'll updating tomorrow with pictures and details from tonight. It should be fun!

  2. Trick or treat a little extra for us! We'll be at home giving out candy, dressed up of course. I can't imagine anything other than coordinating costumes now. I'm going to be completely devastated if these two tiny people decide to have opinions one day.
