This post is weeks old, but still worth posting. We did our traditional patience pinata this October and attempted a trendy fall owl. While the owl was in construction Tim and I wondered if our design would turn out. Thankfully when we put the final touches on it actually looked alright. The girls had a blast hitting the owl and discoving the "goods" inside. This year both of them got slipper socks, Leah got a Halloween shirt, and Elizabeth got a soft sweatshirt (just because I didn't like any of the Halloween shirts in her size).
On Halloween they had a 1/2 day of school while I held parent-teacher conferences. Tim made the trip to pick them up and get them ready for trick-or-treating. Leah dressed up as Minnie Mouse and Elizabeth was a red crayon. After a few photos we all drove downtown to Grand Haven. The girls had a fun time seeing all the different costumes and collecting candy from the local stores. After our time downtown the girls were able to hit a few neighborhood houses. All in all it was a fun night!
