school party & halloween carnival

Friday was the little pumpkin's Halloween Learning Carnival and they could wear their halloween costumes to school. Of course when Hudson heard "Pirate Princess" he immediately pulled out his dragon costume out of the closet and insisted on wearing it too. Love this sweet little dragon!This picture makes me feel all warm & fuzzy. We stopped by so Noonie could see Hudson in his costume and she snapped this picture as we were leaving. I just love this little guy to pieces - he is definitely my lil' cuddle bug! Layla and Grace were paired together for the first part of the activities - they were too cute! Grace's pumpkin had to be a "girly kitty pumpkin"...he he he, check out those eyelashes!Bean bag toss!The spider web walk is always my favorite...so cute!Fancy jewelry...Snack time! Super nutritious, huh? he he heCute girlies...Handsome fellas...Isn't this the cutest little friendly bat you've ever seen??! When I spotted this little bat at Target I just couldn't pass him up!My sweet girl and I...thank you Alice for snapping this pic!Next up, the school-wide halloween carnival!

Hudson kept wanting to throw the ball like a baseball - HA!A mini maze...Hudson's first time to sit still for face painting!!!And finally hopscotch...halloween style, of course!There's just something about experiencing all these fun activities through the littles' eyes that just makes all the craziness worthwhile.
