Happy Halloween!

I started off the Halloween season with a candy corn (my favorite Halloween candy) craft. This wreath turned out pretty good!

The week of Halloween we were visiting family in Pennsylvania so we went to that ward's Trunk-or-Treat. Cala got her face painted with a pumpkin, which she loved, but really she couldn't wait for the candy!

Where my parents live in Pennsylvania they do trick-or-treating on the Thursday before Halloween. Since Mark and I were at a wedding that day, my mom, grandparents, and brother's girlfriend all took Cala trick-or-treating. It makes me laugh to think how that must have looked... 4 adults taking one 3 year old. They had a great time though.

When we got back to New York we went to a Halloween party, which was so fun. Here are my little muchkins.

It was so fun how everyone dressed up for the party. My costume was totally unimaginative, but I used the excuse that we had just gotten home after a 5 hour car ride...

I just love this picture!

Rain, rain, go away!

It has been raining here almost everyday for the last two weeks. Just as it was starting to feel like we should start building an ark, the sun has peeked out from behind the clouds! Hooray! These pictures were taken on one of those rainy days, Cala LOVES to jump in puddles!

Funny girl

The other night Mark was talking to Cala about why she had knocked over her lamp (which shattered the lightbulb). Their conversation went like this...

M: "Why did you knock over your lamp?"

C: "So I could get a pink one!"

M: "But we don't have money to just go buy a new lamp."

C: "Daddy, it's ok. Mommy has all the money. We go to the store and buy stuff."

Ha ha! Smart girl, she sure knows how things work!

When we were at a store recently, a woman said to Cala, "You're so cute! I just want to put you in my pocket." Cala replied, "Sorry, I no fit in you pocket."
