Happy Halloween!

This Halloween was a whole lot different than last year! For Jake and Lilly it still isn't so much about the costumes, but more about all the fun things they did while wearing their costumes! Houston Oaks had a "Spooktacular" event on Sunday afternoon, and the Bubble Zone, an automatic bubble machine, immediately became a magnet for these two.

Jake was a fireman this year... and a handsome one I might add!

Lilly was a fairy, even though she ditched the wings after about 5 minutes!!

On Monday, we went on a hay ride through our neighborhood, making stops to hop off and trick-or-treat. I wasn't sure how much Jake and Lilly would get out of it at this young age, but to my surprise, they caught on very quickly! Watching the other kids take a piece of candy out of the bowl or hold up their treat pail to receive a piece was all they needed to quickly learn how trick-or-treating is done! I have to also add that they had their very first piece of candy today... a Reeses Peanut Butter Cup. Jake spit his bite out (no surprise there) and Lilly quickly gobbled hers up!
