I wish you could see the month of October on my calendar. It's one
of the busiest months at our house with parties every week. From
our wedding anniversary to my birthday party then to the Bunko party
to playgroup party and school parties to having friends over for a little
party to the actual Halloween trick or treating party things get a little
crazy. It has been an amazing Halloween with beautiful weather and
tons of candy. To be more specific Jasmine counted all the pieces of
candy they received (268 pieces of candy) by making a game called the
candy store that they also played last year. I really enjoy doing theme for
the family costumes (look at our last Halloween theme) but the idea that
I had was scary for Andrew so I decided to wait for another year when
Andrew will be a little older. So, I just let them pick what they wanted to
be straight from the store. Jasmine picked a snow princess costume and
Andrew wanted to be Spiderman. Both looked adorable! When I put Andrew's
costume on he said, “This is the best costume ever!” I could tell that he loved
wearing it and getting right into the character was like second nature to him.
As for Jasmine she loved the snow princess costume but was a little hesitant
to actually pick it at the beginning thinking that she may be too old to be a
princess. Immediately I reassured her that she is never too old to be a princess
and that grandpa still calls me his princess. Jasmine sparkled with her white
and silver gown and received endless compliments from everyone.
