Halloween in Sellersburg

Our new city has an annual Trick-or-Treat night at Silver Creek High School. Daddy was working, but we met a bunch of friends there. Thank goodness for friends! Both Amie and I were "husband-less" for the night and were not anticipating the steps, and steps and strollers just don't go well. Luckily Bill and Dave (husbands of Brittney and Jill) were there to help us keep the line moving through the gym. The best part, the girls loved playing on the gym floor once we put a stop to the Trick-or-Treating. After that fun, everyone came back to our house for s'mores and some good old hanging out time.

Halloween at the Zoo

This year we decided to venture over to the Louisville Zoo for their annual Halloween party. Our little peacock was all about people putting things in her bucket, but that was about it. My parents came with us and I was hoping we would be able to see more of the animals since they have not been there since most of the remodeling, but no such luck. Oh well, just an excuse to go back in the spring!

You might remember the Pumpkin from her birthday trip to the zoo...

Pumpkin Picking

Last weekend (when it was still slightly cool) we headed to Deere Farm in Lanesville to pick our pumpkins, still trying to avoid Huber's but wanted to have more than a place on the side of the road. It was a great place to go! They had hay rides, corn mazes, bouncy houses, slides, and more fun things to do. We took a ride out to the pumpkin patch and picked two pumpkins, one to carve and one just the right size for Madeline. I can definitely say she enjoyed this year's pumpkin trip more than last year!

Halloween

We really didn't Trick-or-Treat this year, but we did have have Maddie in costume, she went as a little Love Bug. We went and visited some of the neighbors for the first time and then Miss Madeline helped us pass out candy at the house. When we ran out, we went and helped out at Grandma and Grandpa's house.

Pumpkins!

Today we took Madeline to pick her first pumpkins. We decided to skip the crowds at Huber's this year, but we did drive out to a place on Highway 60 that had great options (and decent prices). So our picking this year was mainly off of carts, we will just have to leave the fields for future years.

Daddy and Madeline (she was obviously thrilled with the pumpkin choices).

Mommy, Maddie, and LOTS of pumpkins.

I will post more pictures later of Miss Maddie and HER pumpkins.
