Happy Halloween!!!

Sooo we had a VERY busy day today!  We started the day with a trick! Matthew and Sarah had snuck over last night and stuck this skull on the mailbox (to replace the red wolf).  And then when I went to get the mail later...I screamed when I opened it to find another one!



This morning we took some family pics...quite different from last year's pics actually!  Boy, oh boy our life has changed in one year!












Then this afternoon we headed to Petco for the annual Halloween Carnival hosted by a local animal rescue organization NAFA.  They have all sorts of fun things going on there...we've gone every year and Maggie is the reigning "shortest tail champion!".  This year Maggie and Tucker went as bananas and of course Maggie was a monkey!  We had a blast! Sarah and Matthew even brought Allie and Oscar.  Allie was a french maid and Oscar was a prisoner...sooo cute!  We ended up winning "2nd place Best Group Costume" and Maggie took home 1st in shortest tail again!








Afterwards we went to Andy's to get the dogs some ice cream.  They LOVED it!



Then after that we hung out at the house and got ready for trick or treaters. Sarah and Matthew brought Essie some great new toys and us a candy basket for Halloween! :) The boys watched football of course.  Then we took Essie to her first house (and only house) to trick or treat.  We ran by my principal, Lacy's house. 





Then Ashley, Chandler, and Adalyn came by to trick or treat!  They gave Essie the CUTEST dress and bib! Thanks yall! Adalyn looked soooo super cute and even gave Essie some kisses.  Getting a picture of the two of them is absolutely impossible though!




Essie also tried sweet potatoes for the first time.  We thought it would be fun to give her a special "treat"!  She LOVED it!







I think Essie had an AMAZING first Halloween!!
