We also carved our pumpkins. John proved to be the master pumpkin carver with his Mickey pumpkin for Chance!
On Tuesday Memorial Hermann had a carnival for employees and their families. So we met John late that afternoon and played games, ate some dinner, and even got to meet the Texans' mascot Toro! Chance loved the games and now thinks they will be there every time we visit Daddy at work! Ha!
Laura Anne came in town on Wednesday for a few days so she got to join in on the rest of our Halloween fun! Thursday was Halloween. Chance's music class was having a Halloween party on Thursday morning so once again we donned the Mickey costume (with a bit of bribery) and headed out to music. Mrs. Kathy had "spooky" music, pumpkin games, and lots of fun. We all brought Halloween treats and passed them out to the class. Afterwards we did a fun craft.
The weather was not cooperating and we were worried trick-or-treating would not happen. Thankfully during the afternoon the sun came out so our evening could go on as planned. The only problem was, in true Texas fashion, it was quite hot for Chance's one-piece, long pants, long-sleeved Mickey costume. As it turns out our beloved Red Sox won the world series the night before so we all dressed up in our Red Sox gear and went as baseball players! Crisis averted! We went to a neighbors house for pizza, then headed out to trick-or-treat with our crew of strollers, wagons, parents, and kids. Our group slowly dwindled, including us as the sun started to go down. We sat on our front porch for the last few trick-or-treaters. Chance passed out some candy then went to bed. John and Laura Anne continued their tradition of watching scary movies together while I buried my nose in the ipad trying not to pay attention!
We had lots of fun at Halloween!
