It was a Spooktacular Halloween

After a traumatic episode early in the week in which a motorcyclist terrified Alexa at a pumpkin patch, we decided to take her in for pictures with a pro. I promise to post some of those tomorrow. I forgot I don't have the files on this computer. But I do have some other pictures.

We celebrated the evening by decorating and handing out treats. Matt really got into the spirit and made the house look great. The precious little 3 year old a few doors down calls it the spooky house now, but it looked great just the same and I think the handful of Snickers and M&Ms will convince her we're not terrible people.


Then Oma and Poppy (Matt's parents) came by, on their way to Patrick and Kelly's, to see our little pumpkin and get in some sugars. Oma even dressed up for the occassion! We took Alexa over to see her Uncle Patrick and Aunt Kelly, but forgot our camera. Hopefully her sweet and leveable aunt will send me a copy of the ones we took with her camera =).

On Saturday I took her to her Granny's house where she got to play with her cousin CJ. Ok, they just look at each other and wonder right now. But playing is just around the corner. Lisa and I decided to dress them up for a group picture. They made a really cute bunny and pumpkin, I must say.

They also took a picture with their delighted granny! Then they and we got to relax. Matt was at the game for the evening. So Alexa and I shared dinner with mom, Lisa and CJ then headed home, with a stop by our good friends, Cam & Timmy's house so Alexa could get in some last minute trick or treating. Once we got home she of course wanted to watch the Gamecocks clobber TN (sorry to my lovely family in TN). Obviously Alexa is going to be a daddy's girl since she loooooves football.

I promise to have her little glamour shots posted soon.

Love,
April
