Halloween Recap

Its been a full week of festivities leading up to Halloween.  We begin with a brunch and all things Halloween at my parents Country Club on Sunday.  It was complete with a pumpkin bounce house, cookie decorating, and a magic show.  Photo taking was anything other than easy but we did manage to get a few cute ones.


Donald Duck was the perfect costume for Graham because he has really just taken off walking the past few weeks.  He has the perfect Donald waddle complete with "Quack Quack!!"  when you ask if what a duck says!


Power Ranger Reece's highlight, cookie making with toppings galore!


All week the meteorologists had been calling for bad weather on Thursday but we were confident in normal Michigan manner the weather would change.  Unfortunately this time they hit it dead on:(!  So while it poured down rain with high winds all day yesterday, the rain turn to a light mist right around 6 pm and it made trick or treating much more manageable.  
Halloween brought out round two of costumes!

It was a full day of activities beginning with a costume party for Graham at Chuck E Cheese.  My mom, Nana took Graham.  He won for the best costume, and of course we think they made a great choice!


I took a half day so I could be at Reece's Halloween party and parade at his school.  Because of the weather the parade was moved inside.  It's always a fun afternoon!

We had some of our good friends from school join us for dinner and trick or treating.  While I was originally on the fence about bringing Graham out, when the weather improved we went for it, and so glad we did!  Our neighborhood really makes trick or treating a big celebration not only for the kids but also the adults.  This year certainly did not disappoint.  




Halloween 2013 was the best yet!!
