Halloween was very long this year. We celebrated early October with a trip to the pumpkin patch with friends. We took a wagon ride, ate apple cider donuts, and let the kids run around. Of course, it’s still very warm, but the girls looked so cute and festive in their outfits!!
Later that day we went to Carowinds. Charlotte got to play two carnival games as a result in a bribe. 🙈 She was in heaven because she never gets to do this!
Charlotte’s elementary school had “Storybook Day” where you dress up like one of your favorite Storybook characters. It’s in lieu of Halloween dress up. She picked Fancy Nancy. She slept in hair curlers to get the full effect. I think her costume turned out perfect!
Our ward put on a Trunk-or-Treat that got moved inside due to the rain. The girls were both Belle this year. The primary kids presented their costumes in a little performance and Charlotte gave everyone a little twirl!
We visited a very popular apple orchard in South Carolina. But once we got there, we realized it was known for its hard cider. ;) We stayed sober and got normal apple cider and the best cider donuts!!
Once actual Halloween came around, we were pretty ready!! Charlotte wore her Halloween outfit to school, naturally! We celebrated that night with our community on Main Street with our friends, the Humrichs! It was fun to trick-or-treat to all the small business owners and vendors. Then we went out to dinner. I think this will become our new Halloween tradition!! Once we arrived back at home, Josh took Charlotte to a few houses in the neighborhood. We partied and enjoyed the candy when they got back!
