We ended up having such a good time trick or treating on Halloween night as a family. It was a nice change.. we did not have any thing to do on Halloween night so we started our night by greeting trick or treaters at our door and Grace LOVED holding the bowl and going to the door to pass out the candy. Then we walked around our neighborhood and trick or treated as well as got in the car and went up the road a bit to another neighborhood and trick or treated. When it was all said and done, Grace had accumulated WAY more candy than we ever needed but we had fun! :) The weather was so mild it was perfect walking around outside this Halloween.
We've had some other Fall fun. We were invited to one of the boys at our church, birthday party. His Mother is also a faithful volunteer for the children's ministry at our church and we love their whole family. Anyways, they live on some GORGEOUS land and had a bonfire with a hayride. The kids got to see some of their animals and we ate on the tables outside chili, soup and hot dogs and the kids just had a blast playing on their beautiful land!
We have also started to go to a home group that started up from our church. We were invited and since we do not have a lifegroup because we are always in the children's area it has been SO nice to get to know some people close to our age and get 'plugged in' with them and do a Bible Study in different homes on Friday nights. So far we have went twice. We were going to go tonight but we are having winter icy weather today and we are all stuck at home. :) But the first time we went, they were also celebrating a birthday and we had a bonfire that night as well and roasted marshmallows and hot dogs on the fire and had some other yummy food.
These pics below are from the first birthday party..
