Party Till You Drop!

Well, this past week was full of festivities. Matt & I attended a Couples Costume Party the weekend before Halloween. Our Sunday school class had the party and everyone dressed up. It was a lot of fun! Everyone brought food and we played some games. There were no kids there so we all had a fun time! I'll include a picture of us dressed up in my next post! On Wednesday night, there was a cookout at our church and we had trunk or treat there. The girls dressed as Titans cheerleaders this year. Abbie really enjoyed watching all of the kids. I felt like this year Sophie was more into the Halloween thing. She wasn't as scared by everything and she (sometimes) said trick-or-treat, though she usually got shy! She was definitely into the candy this year! At church, they also had some little games for the kids to play.

Then, on Thursday morning, Sophie's preschool class had a Halloween party. Sophie had several family members present for this because Matt, Abbie & myself came as well as Uncle Phil. The kids had a pizza party along with some other treats. Then, they trick-or-treated around the church offices and surrounding properties that are owned by church members. We had beautiful weather for all of the Halloween festivities and I'm glad that we could be part of Sophie's school party.

On Halloween night, our church had Trunk or Treat and dinner on the grounds. Before going over there, we stopped by Nana's house to show off Sophie's costume. Sophie didn't mind wearing the wig, but unfortunately it just wouldn't stay on! We added some make-up to Sophie's cheeks later. Sophie had a decent time going trunk or treating but I felt bad for her because she's had a cold/allergies this week and she was coughing the whole time. Plus, she held tight to Mommy's hand because she was scared of a lot of the costumes and decorations that she saw as we walked from car to car. Oh well, there's always next year. =)
