Weekend Recap...

Editors Note:  Because I couldn't get my crap together was extremely busy last week, I didn't have time to blog about Ava's fall festival at school.  So that is going to be included in our Weekend Recap! 

This past Wednesday we got all dressed up and headed to The Whistle Stop Station's Annual Halloween Extraviganza!  It was so much fun! They have you park at an elementary school a block away, and then the WSS Spooky Bus picks you up and takes you to the school.  Ava was in HEAVEN riding that bus!  Once we got to the school, teachers and staff greeted you in their Halloween finest.  There were games to play, candy to eat, and even professional pictures to be taken of your little ghosts and goblins!



Bat girl was a little nervous at first.  There were a TON of kids and parents, so I don't blame her!



Waiting to play a fun game with Emily.



She still wasn't sure about this....





















Finally, we found Miss Alyissa, Ava's teacher!  Ava LOOOVVESSS her, and was in such a better mood once we found her :)



Playing Miss Alyissa's game...so happy now!



At the end of the night with "Witch Jenny".

So much fun, and we can't wait to do it again next year!!

What a fun weekend!  It was so nice here, and we got in some much needed really great family time!

Saturday was such a fun day!  Ava and I had a blast making "brunch" that included some homemade pigs in a blanket. She was so excited to get to roll them :)

After brunch and a nap, we got ready for Trick-or-treating.  Ava is really going through a shy/nervous stage right now, so we had a little bit of a rough start.  The first 10 houses or so she clung to my leg as I held open her bag and said "trick-or-treat" and "thank you".  I asked if she just wanted to go home, but she wasn't having any of that. After she warmed up, she was a natural! She was running from house to house and yelling "trick-or-treat" and "thank you" when it was all said and done.



























































On Sunday, we had a lazy relaxing morning that consisted of watching cartoons and snuggling in bed.  It was georgeous outside, so after naptime we headed to the little playground at our apartment for a little fun in the sun :)














































































I hope ya'll had a fabulous weekend too!  Happy Monday!
