Halloween 2008

Ok, I know that I am way behind, but I promise that I will get better at adding updates. So here goes....On October 31, 2008 Riley experienced her first Halloween!!! During the day Riley and I carved a pumpkin! She did NOT like sticking her hands inside the pumpkin, but she liked playing with all the slimy stuff in the bowl, she even tried to taste it a couple of times. We had a great time starting a tradition together!!! Then that evening Nana, Pappy, Aunt Angela, Uncle Allen, and baby Allen came down for some dinner and fun times at the Fall Festival!! WOOHOO!! We had Crispy Salsa Chicken, with rice and veggies for dinner, and then I made a spice pumpkin cake!! It was DELICIOUS!!! After dinner we were getting the kids dressed to go to fall festival (Riley - Minnie Mouse and Allen - Mickey Mouse) but baby Allen had had enough and fell asleep, and so they called it a night...poor baby!! It is a rough life!! LOL!!! Anyways, we got Riley ready and then our neighbors and Riley's buddy came over, Jayda, and we got some cute pictures of them together. Then we headed off to the Fall Festival at our church, and let me tell you Riley had a good time!! She bowled, bobbing for ducks, toured the fire truck, and bounced in the bounce house (her absolute FAVORITE thing to do!!!)! Then Nana and Pappy headed home, daddy headed to the deer lease to go hunting, and Riley and I came home and went to bed. What a fun filled evening!!
