Trick-or-Treating in Findlay

Tonight we started a new family tradition of trick or treating in Findlay. It was Laura's idea. Each year, Findlay has their trick-or-treating the Thursday before Halloween. She thought it would be nice for the kids to go trick-or-treating each year together. That way we could all do our own thing on Halloween night, but they still get the opportunity to have fun together. Tonight was interesting to say the least. Hopefully it will be a little easier next year when Abigail is almost 2. :)

Abigail still not understanding what is going on. Doesn't she look cute? Kelly said she looked like a Monchichi.


Alex as Ron Weasley (from Harry Potter) and Elena as Snow White.


Even Aunt Kelly got into the fun dressing up as the Evil Queen. Hopefully Snow White won't eat a poisoned apple. By the way, Landon is dressed up as a Lobster. He was so cute! Honestly, ALL four of the kids were adorable in their costumes.


Abigail traveling around the neighborhood. I think she was trying to figure out what was going on.


Right before she totally began throwing a fit because she was too tired we let her push the stroller around. This seems to be her new thing.

Fleitz Pumpkin Farm

Last Saturday, Abigail and I joined Kelly's family and Mom at Fleitz' Pumpkin Farm. We had fun feeding the goats and exporing the farm. Abigail wasn't too thrilled most of the time. I think she was getting sleepy and would rather have been taking a nap. But, we did pick out our pumpkins and we plan on carving them this weekend!

Arriving at the Pumpkin Farm (still in a good mood)


Elena going down the slide.


This time she took Abigail down with her.


Being silly with the gourds. (At least Alex is being silly. Abigail is wondering why we are taking another picture of her)

Abigail is only happy when pushing the cart.
