Halloween 2012

Last weekend, we took Avery Claire to the McGee Farms (the pumpkin patch). She was so excited about going, but the trip was a little longer than we realized and she got sleepy on the way. So, she was a little cranky by the time we got there. Not to mention that it somehow turned -20 degrees Saturday. So we stayed for about 20 minutes and froze our hineys off.
We did manage to get a few good pictures. Not a fan of the chickens.
I tried to take a few pictures after church Sunday. Silly girl

We finally carved our pumpkins Sunday night, right before bedtime.
(Please excuse the foam headband. I bought it at Hobby Lobby to cover with fabric to match an outfit and she seriously wore it around the house for days like this.)
I'm the pumpkin carver around here. If you know Dusty, you know his squeamish self can't handle the pumpkin guts.
Papa grew this little pumpkin for Avery Claire in his pumpkin patch this year. He was so proud of it and so was she!
Avery Claire dressed up as "Dorfy" for Halloween. I could have eaten her up with a spoon. Cutest Dorothy ever. Before School: Before Church Fall Festival and Trick or Treating Sweet Becca went with us to the church fall festival because Dusty was still at practice (he did get to trick or treat with us!). Avery Claire was so shy at the fall festival. I guess there was a lot going on, and from a little kid's perspective, it was probably overwhelming!
Thanks, Becca, for getting in the bouncy house with Avery Claire! I knew how much you really loved her when you offered to get in there with her and 11 other wild kids.

I love Halloween. It's seriously becoming one of my favorite holidays! Halloween with kiddos is too much fun!
