Halloween Party and THANKS to Uncle Pete and Aunt Amanda!!!

Carly just told me it's called FALL FESTIVAL, not Halloween party, but whatever! Lots of Carly's classmates in adorable costumes descended on Isabella's house this morning and exactly when the party (festival!!!) was set to end, it started raining like crazy. We were so happy that it held off for long enough for the kids to get to run around and have fun.

This is my friend Michele's dad, and Carly's friend Jane's PapPap. Bree just loves him. Yesterday we went over to see Jane and Jack's new baby brother William and Bree walked right in the house and right over to Jane's PapPap and lifted up her arms to be picked up. The same thing happened today. It's so cute!

After she was finished grandpa-stealing, Bree took me on a tour of the grounds. I think these cherubs usually line the circle drive, and were moved to allow for parking. Bree really had a great time exploring all of the sculptures...she even found the racy naked one that had been moved behind some flower pots for the party. =)

Okay wait, this is the reason I don't have any pictures of Carly. She spent the whole time on this cool trampoline with Isabella (in pink) and Jane (the Tinkerbell on the right in the trampoline).

Bree bypassed the scooters and tricycles for the beamer. =)

Then she went to climb up and down those slate steps for a while and try to give me multiple heart attacks by almost falling off the sides and then straight back. Yikes!

Carly didn't feel like posing for a photo on the way out.

Okay THEN! Right in the middle of what seemed like the Longest Afternoon Ever, we got a very fun package in the mail from Uncle Pete and Aunt Amanda!!! This picture makes me laugh because I could NOT get Bree to sit still next to her adorable pumpking. She just carried her pants around....see her in the background? SO funny. Carly meanwhile loved the candy necklace and the cell phone.

Look at their adorable matchy matchy! It was 82 degrees this morning but now it's in the 60's so it's perfect for these! I really love them and we're probably going to wear them tomorrow to fully enjoy the cuteness.

Of course the BOX it all came in was the biggest hit! After Bree got done exploring it, Carly took it over and she's watching Harry Potter from it right now. =)
