Isabel's first Halloween was very busy. We started the day running errands to finish daddy's costume and pick up items for our appetizer. Isabel took a nice nap so mommy could make pumpkin guts (buffalo chicken dip) and daddy ran some more errands. After Isabel woke up and ate one of her three all orange meals, we started the fun stuff...pumpkin carving. Okay, Isabel was not that into the pumpkin carving. Maybe next year...
Daddy and mommy worked really hard at carving the pumpkin. We patted ourselves on the back for our first attempt; however, like Isabel, some of you may look at it and say, "maybe next year..."
After pumpkin carving, we all headed to Uncle James and Auntie Suz's for a Halloween party. It was an absolutely perfect day for Halloween and everyone was able to hang outside, run around, and chat around the fire pit. Daddy and Isabel, or should I say Curious Georgette and the Man in the Yellow Hat, spent much of their time hanging out in the tree. Mommy did not have a costume. Maybe next year...
Isabel went trick-or-treating at a few houses, but mommy and daddy didn't let her accept a lot of the candy she was offered. She was not going to be the one eating it and since we were not home to give out candy at our house, we already had plenty for mom and dad. Maybe next year...
Poor Isabel, every time we got in the car to go somewhere all she wanted to do was sleep, but mommy and daddy kept waking her up. Finally, she got a little snoozer. No need to wait for next year on that one.
Here's to this year's Halloween and many more to come!
