Our Halloween weekend was quite the busy one! Yesterday we got home from school/work and carved our pumpkins. Sophia had a great time scooping the gook out of the pumpkins, helping us cut the designs out, and putting the seed that I wanted to save in the strainer. She loved the finished products when Hal put the candles in the pumpkins so she could see what they looked like in the dark.
Today I got up bright and early to do a Halloween Half-Marathon. The run went well despite the cold weather. While I ran Sophia had a Halloween breakfast with Grandma Jayne and Grandpa Hal. She had a wonderful time playing toys and reading books. After I got home we went over to my parents house so Sophia could trick-or-treat over there. She got a cute Little Pets set and a Halloween decorated sugar cookie. The cookie was quite the fancy thing! Great Grandma Erma and her sister Lillian also came over to see Sophia in her costume. Despite the fact she liked the costume, she wanted to take it off to play with her new toy.
We had some lunch and then went to get the pizzas for dinner. Sophia took a nap and so did the rest of us. Then we got up and got ready to go have dinner with the neighbors before heading out for trick-or-treating. Sophia wore her puppy costume and her friend Ava was a Barbie Witch.
The girls had a great time trick-or-treating together and came home with quite the load of candy! Roger and I were surprised at how far the girls walked and how long they lasted. They were the only ones left out when we came home.
Tomorrow we are going to hang out around the house during the day and then we are off to the Gopher Hockey game tomorrow night!
