Halloween Happenings

This was the scariest part of our Halloween. Marc tried to put Griffin on a pony at Thanksgiving Point's Barnyard Boo and it was he was TERRIFIED! Our friends Scott and Kari invited us to go with them to the Barnyard Boo and it was really cute. I'm excited to take Griffin back and try the ponies when he's a little older.

After we got calmed down we went for a wagon ride (Griffin would NOT look at the horses) and then went into the diner to warm up with some hot chocolate.
It was really fun and the perfect opportunity to get more than one nights wear out of his cute little lion costume.


I went to Witches Night Out at Gardner Village, including Witch-a-Palooza with my mom and sisters. Always a good time!

We went to annual Wengel Halloween Bash dressed as the Mad Hatter, Queen of Hearts and Griffin as the Lion. Had I thought about dressing up earlier then I would have incorporated Griffin into the theme.

My sister Steph had these costumes and was kind enough to let us borrow them! She's the best! Special thanks to a couple pairs of Marc's socks to help me in the fill the bust of this lovely dress.

Ruka HATES Halloween (and me) not only because the doorbell rings and she barks everytime, but also because I dress her up in these adorable little costumes and bows.

My darling sister and her handsome Gladiator boys came to visit. She and her boys always have the best costumes! We were honored to have them visit us on such a busy night!

We had a great Halloween as usual and are excited for the rest of the holidays to get here!
