Happy Halloween!!

Happy Halloween, albeit late, but none the less Happy Halloween. We had a great time with the girls. Grace loved getting dressed up in her Halloween costume or her "cosh" as she called it. She went trick-or-treating at about a dozen or so houses. It finally got to cold so we had to take the girls inside, and Rich & I enjoyed the fruits (or should I say candy) of Grace's labor. Now before you think we're horrible parents for eating our sweet 2 year olds candy, who in their right mind would let their sweet 2 year old eat a half pumpkin bucket full of candy? Just for the record she had a tootsie roll and a sucker.

Gracie picking out her pumpkin with Grandma. She had quite the difficult time in deciding which pumpkin was the "perfect" one.
Even Joy-Joy got a pumpkin just her size - although she didn't seem too impressed.
Just a funny side-note picture. Rich was blowing the leaves off of our patio and the girls, plus two of the kids I watch, thought it was the coolest thing they'd ever seen.

On Halloween night, we kept up the Tisdel tradition of going to Pizza Hut for dinner. My parents used to take Mark & I there every Halloween (until probably I got into school) for dinner. It was fun, and the girls had a blast. My parents gave the girls some presents and one of the gifts was a stuffed cat. This is Grace's impersonation of a cat meowing. She was a VERY dramatic cat!
Joy-Joy enjoying her cat too. Although she refrained from making dramatic cat noises.
Our little ladybug. We apparently forgot to take a pictures of Joy in her costume. She was a Michigan cheerleader. All in all it was a great Halloween, and I think Rich & I were more excited than the kids.

Oh Grace, we love the Lady Bug...and the cat's meow! You are great. What fun for 4 girls to watch that silly man outside the window blowing leaves. What fun for Dad to put on a show for the girls. He really isn't silly...just does silly things to entertain the sweetest girls.
