Halloween was so much fun this year! Lucy is getting old enough to enjoy all of the excitement and magic of the holidays. On Monday evening, we played the Halloween Safety game for Family Home Evening. This lesson is a tradition carried over from when Angela was growing up. Lucy had fun rolling the dice. For our activity, we carved a pumpkin and roasted pumpkin seeds.
Lucy didn't want to touch the slimy pumpkin guts. "Daddy, hold!"
Our jack-o-lantern. Lucy got a little scared of it.
Lucy was so excited to dress up as "MeeMee Mouse." She didn't even complain about wearing the ears!
On Saturday, we went to our ward Halloween party. We saw lots of our friends. Lucy really likes her friends Avy and Brooklyn. She loves to play with the big girls.
Lucy and Angela did the cake walk, and Lucy won chocolate cupcakes.
Lucy is enjoying her prize.
Lucy liked the bean bag toss.
Lucy wanted her face painted. She asked for a pink fish.
After Allison painted Lucy's face, Lucy grabbed a face paint crayon and started applying her own makeup. "Pitty" (pretty) she said.
Daddy helped Lucy putt the golf ball.
The highlight of the evening was Trunk or Treating. Lucy got so excited people were just handing out candy. She would get distracted trying to open up the most recent addition to her bucket, but once she realized that she would get more, there was no stopping her. She enjoyed a tootsie roll from her stash.
Look at all of this candy!
