Halloween Festivities Begin

My older kids were so excited about today! At their preschool, Harmony Hill, they had their Halloween parties and costume parades. It was so cute to see all the kids in their costumes! It is always a fun occasion. Then they got set for a sugar high in their classrooms for their parties. Here are some pictures of the kids at school today.

Lillian wanted a picture with Marjorie, so I had to be in it!

80's Dance Fashion Show

I have a friend I know from the gym that told me yesterday she is moving into a smaller house and getting rid of a lot of stuff since she is down-sizing, so we went to her house this afternoon and she gave me a bag full of her daughter's old dance recital costumes! Lillian was in love! She tried them all on, twirled around and said she LOVED her new outfits! ha ha....I guess I may have to look into getting her into dance!

Happy Halloween 2010

Harmony Hill Halloween 2010

Andrew and Lillian hs their parties and costume parades at Harmony Hill Preschool this morning. It is so fun each year seeing them all dressed up with their friends. This is my 3rd year to see it all, but Andrew's first time.

The kids were so excited this morning that they couldn't wait to get to school.

Here is Lillian come out for the parade...she ran out all excited!

Andrew eating at his party...I spent most of my time with him because when I left to check on Lillian, he cried, so I came back and hung out at his party.

He was very happy to decorate his pumpkin!

Happy Halloween

Lillian and Andrew had a great time trick-or-treating this year! Lillian lead the way to each door and rang the bell as Andrew followed behind and came up to the door with her. He even started saying something that sounded like "Trick or Treat." It was too cute! He did get really tired at one point, but once I gave him a tootsiepop from his bag, he was wanting to run and was wired again.

We got to do the first half of our trick-or-treating with our neighbors, Karen and Jeff and their kids, Tyler and Audrey. They came out the door about the same time as us, so we just walked together. Molly also borrowed my old Gumby costume and people loved to see her out...although it was a little old for some kids who called her "Yoshi"! ha ha....

The kids had a great Halloween and I know we are in for even more fun next year! Although, I think the kids may think we can do this all the time now.
