fall festival

*finally* got picture uploader working again.  argh.  

so back to catching up on last month… 

after the kids’ pumpkin party, some friends invited us to join them at another church’s harvestfestival that evening. allie insisted on wearing her piggy mask with her costume andinformed me that she wasn’t my little pink fairy (like i’d been hopingfor), but was now a pink pig fairy.

    Looks like fun!  Seriously…how do you get your kids to wear their Halloween costumes?  Matthew took one look and said “NO.”  (This is after I had a discussion with him trying to figure out what he would like to be for Halloween.  He agreed to be Thomas the Train.)

    @joesee22 – ha ha, matthew’s too funny.  i think he’s too hip for thomas the train.    you might find he’ll like wearing costumes more next year– dressing up and pretend play is big with the 3-4-5 year old crowd.  lauren just kept hers on cuz i think she forgot about it as long as the snacks kept coming her way.
