Beauty and The Pooh

Halloween this year was so much fun for Chris and I. Katie dressed up as Belle from Beauty and The Beast and Bree went as Winnie the Pooh. Katie was really into Halloween this year and all excited about going trick or treating. Bree wasn't sure what we were getting ready to do but she was so excited to have her costume on. Katie wore this same costume when she was Bree's age but Katie never liked wearing the hat. Bree on the other had wore everything all night long. Once they were all dressed and ready to go we went out to hunt for some candy. We took our wagon because I figured Bree would get tired of walking, but she was a really trooper. She walked almost the entire neighborhood and as her bucket of candy got heavier and heavier you could hear it dragging the ground, but she wasn't about to let anyone hold it for her. I guess she thought Mommy or Daddy were going to steal some candy. There were only a few houses they were too scared to go up to by themselves, so I would take them. It was very sweet to see both of them walking together and going up to houses getting their candy.

On Saturday we were all invited to a bonfire at a friends house. We roasted hot dogs and had smores. Katie even roasted her own hot dog. After we all ate and hung out for awhile they had a mini firework display. Katie didn't like the load noise of the fireworks. Bree did okay until one of the fireworks was really big and it looked like it was coming right at us, that really scared her and it was over at the point for her. She was hanging on to me with a death grip. Luckly, they only had a few more to set off and they were done. Oh yeah, Katie thinks the idea of cooking outside is just great. She keeps asking when we are going to have a kitchen outside. :)

Here are a few pictures from the weekend.
