Halloween, Take 2

Yesterday we painted the 5 remaining pumpkins. Here is a picture of Lily the pumpkin painter:

"As everyone knows, I LOVE to paint!"

The (first) finished product

Tonight we went to our friends Stacy and Neil's for pizza and to trick or treat in their cul de sac with Sadie, Sara, and David. Here is a picture of our little trick or treater in her Minnie Mouse costume.

"I'm Minnie!"

"I've got my glow jewelry, I've got my pink pumpkin, I'm all ready for trick or treating!"

"Trick or treat! Thank you!"

Halloween, Take 1

Today was the Halloween party at Lily's school. Everyone wore their costumes, then they had a parade, and of course there were cupcakes!

When we got home, we decorated one of Lily's 6 pumpkins with a "Mrs. Potato Head" style pumpkin decorating kit.

"Look at my cute princess pumpkin!"

Singing

On Sunday morning, Lily was in a singing mood. We caught her singing while she was coloring with Grandma.

Farming with Grandma and Grandpa

On Saturday, Lily took a trip with Grandma and Grandpa to a farm in central New Jersey. Lily had a great time looking at all kinds of different animals and she even got to pet a piglet!

"That's a cow? I've never seen a hairy cow before Grandma!"*

*This is a Highlands Scottish Cow

"This is a cool farm Grandpa!"

"Ducks!"

"I've never pet a piggy before!"

Pumpkin Festival

Today we went with some friends to Butler's Orchard's Fall Festival. Lily enjoyed checking out all the fun "pumpkin people," looking at the chickens and bunnies, playing games, doing art, and of course picking pumpkins!

"Daddy, Linus is here!"

"BOO!"

Lily and Ryan playing the ball toss game.

"I really like this corn box. It's much cleaner then a sand box!"

"Look at our cute pumpkins!"

Lily is a good apple peeler

Saturday we went apple picking with some friends. After nap, Lily helped me make a pie. She was a very good apple peeler!

So much so in fact, that I let her peel a few extra, and the pie looked like this:

Until I moved some of the apples into a baking dish to bake separately.
