Halloween Fun

Last night was interesting. We dressed Reese up as a bumblebee and she looked adorable. I am not sure what she thought of being dressed like that though. I don't think she thought much of it.




But then the doorbell started to ring and she got nervous. At first we thought she might have thought we were leaving. But then we realized it was the costumes. Particularly the kids that had masks on their faces. She did not like that at all. She started crying and was so nervous about it.



So we didn't go to the door with her for a little while. Later our friends from the neighborhood came over to visit for a few minutes. We sat outside with them and Reese started to warm up to the idea of seeing all of the kids. She was still terrified of the ones with masks so I would just turn her away as they were walking up.



Emma was a little monster...so cute!!


After the girls were settled for a little while and having fun we decided to take them to a couple of the neighbors houses that we know. They had fun walking to the doors and getting candy in their halloween buckets. It was a good thing we only went to three houses because that took about twenty minutes. They were slow pokes walking to and from the houses. They weren't quite sure what was going on.







After we said good night to them, Reese came inside to check out her goodies.


Now Lance and I get to eat her goodies!!

Jackets and Pumpkins

We had a fun and busy weekend. Friday our friend Justin and his girlfriend Erica came in town to visit. This is the last time we are going to see them both for over a year because they are both being deployed next month. We soaked up a lot of fun and time with them. As soon as they got here Friday, Reese was in Erica's lap having her read books.


Saturday we cheered on the Jackets.


Reese in her gameday attire. I can't get her to smile or pose for pictures anymore!!


The boys.


Sunday after they left we (Lance) carved our pumpkin.


Here it is in the dark.


We had a great weekend with our friends. Please pray for them to stay safe and we can't wait to see them again next year. We were talking about the changes in Reese by the time they get back. She will be 2.5 years old, will be talking a ton, and will probably have much longer hair. She will be a completely different kid by then.
