The Festival

On Halloween weekend, we had  the girls on Saturday. Here is what we did:
We made spider web pumpkins.

We went to a trampoline arena. Anne is in the red.

They tried on costumes, and then we headed to a big Halloween Festival.

They got to sit in a big fire truck!

And they got balloon animals.

Some other things to see there. This was the giant tiger slide. And there were giant lines waiting to slide.

Skunk Baby.

Check out this little girl. There were candles around the top of her hat.

Three Amigos...and their mom.

A strolling Priest.

Tweedle Dum & Tweddle Dee.

And there were plenty of animals, too. Here is a cute ballerina.

And Lobster Dog!

Thanks for spending the day with us! It was fun, but we were really worn out at the end of the day!

God, the God of Israel, says, ‘Free my people so that they can hold a festival for me in the wilderness.’”
Exodus 5

FUN!
I love the skunk. :-)

My favorite costume this year was Mary Poppins, she had the bag, the umbrella, the hat, it was so good. I learned later her mom made the bird on the umbrella. :-) Such fun creativity!!
