We have had a wonderful and very full Halloween this year! We went to Storybook Forrest last Monday (pictures not posted, so I will have to add them later) for FHE. We carved pumpkins with Bryn, Makenna, and my mom/dad. We carved 2 pumpkins at home and we went on Halloween to Pop's for lunch, then to the pumpkin patch by Arcadia Lake, and then took Addison out for her first trick-or-treat experience. Whew! We've been busy!
Addison didn't want to sit for a picture. . . there was too much to see!
Last time Addison was at a petting zoo, she didn't want to touch the animals. This time; however, she decided to pet them AND she even fed a goat at the very end of our trip.
This petting zoo had several little goats, a llama (Steve called it the vacuum because of how it ate food out of your hand), a couple of sheep, and one cow. Steve kept trying to feed the cow, but the cow's tongue kept knocking it off his hand. I had to teach Steve to cup the food right up to the cow's mouth. Don't feel too bad for the cow. . . it would push all the animals out of his way so he could get extra treats!
Cowgirl Addison!
There were lots of haystacks for the kids to play on. Steve and I took this picture right after a couple of mom's told their kids they couldn't play there because there were probably snakes around. . . we didn't find any though. :)
Climb up Addison!
Just kidding, Steve handed her to me!
Addison loved climbing up the haystack to get to the slide! She is a sucker for a slide!
This is a very small part of a really beautiful/very large fallen tree. I wanted to get a picture of it by itself, but too many people were around taking pics on it. I guess you will have to go see it for yourself!
Here is when Addison decided she wanted to try to feed the animals. I was very nervous about it. Steve kept saying it would be fine, but I was worried she would clench the food and an animal would bite her. It turned out fine though.
Addison tried to feed the cow, but ended up feeding the goats. They were the right height for her.
We ended our night by trick-or-treating in our neighborhood. Addison was dressed as a jack-o-lantern!
Addison at her first door (our next door neighbors). It was funny, because they forgot it was Halloween (their lights were on, so don't blame me!), but they did have some dum dums on hand so it turned out okay.
Addison then went across the street to our other neighbor's house. She really acted like she had done this before!
Waiting for some candy!
We played the "look at the camera Addison" game a lot that night.
Daddy was a great helper, and he didn't eat as much of Addison's candy as you would think. :)
Admiring her loot.
Addison's first trick-or-treating loot. I think she did pretty good. She immediately ate her 4 small Reese's peanut butter cups before she went to bed. That was all the candy she wanted, and I think all the candy she could handle.
