As you probably already know, we LOVE Halloween! As usual we kept ourselves pretty busy with as many Halloween festivities as we could. Here are some of the pictures, starting with the girls' school's annual Spooktacular Bingo. Once again, we didn't win anything, but we had a lot of fun!

While we haven't found any place where we can actually pick pumpkins, we did find a farm on the way home from Avery's soccer game where we could grab a bunch.

Our awesome Halloween Decorations |
For Halloween, we had Gramma, Grampa, Great-Grandma, and Great-Grandpa in town. We had a lot of fun with them all weekend! It was also our first time trick or treating in our new neighborhood, which was amazing. Not only are there a lot of houses, but a lot of people are very generous at Halloween! The girls got so much candy with quite a few full sized candy bars. People were passing out hot chocolate, hot apple cider, and Cory, Gramma and I got offered a few adult beverages! We had a great time!

Avery showing off her candy haul. It's a good thing she decided to ditch the plastic pumpkin for a pillowcase this year! |
|
And Sierra got just as much! |
|
While everyone was here, we celebrated Gramma's birthday with a DQ cake. Happy Birthday Gramma! |

Just a silly picture of Sierra in a very bubbly, bubble bath! |
Nana came into town just in time for some more fun stuff....

...Avery's Veteran's Day Program... |
...and Avery's soccer tournament, in which she played great and her team won 2 out of 3 games! It is amazing how much she has improved over the course of the season. She even had an assist in one of the games, and she plays defense!
