Happy Halloween!!

Last night we celebrated Halloween by going to the annual Trunk or Treat. This was the first year I have ever attended a trunk or treat. We had a really good time playing games and listening to the music. Madilyn enjoyed the music she danced the whole night. I tried to get video of it, but the lighting was too dark to capture her groove.
Argh...Matey!!
Where will be my next stop for candy? Madilyn became very comfortable walking around asking for candy!

She enjoyed pointing at all the trunks that were decorated with ghosts and pumpkins.

Trick or Treat!!

Fall Is Here!!

I love the changing of the seasons especially Fall. We don't see much changing of seasons in the valley so every year we head up to St. Johns to do our annual trip round the mountain to see the changing leaves. We stopped in Greer to grab a bit to eat at Molly Butlers. It was perfect we sat on the deck by the fire place and ate our French dip sandwiches. Afterwards we headed up the mountain and saw all the pretty gold trees.

The leaf crew!
Madilyn having fun doing funny voices... anything for a good laugh!

Our view during lunch off the deck...gorgeous!! (wish you were there Lora. :( )

Beautiful...
Gorgeous...
Wish you were here... (What movie line is that off of?)
We ended the day watching "Casper the Friendly Ghost" that Uncle Adam had bought for Madilyn's birthday. Madilyn received some Halloween pajama's with ghosts on them from Aunt Jill the beginning of September and ever since Madilyn has loved ghosts and shouts out BOO whenever she see them or anything else that resembles Halloween!!
The movie crew! (Nicholas, Audrey, Sarah, and Madilyn) We popped some popcorn and made a big bed in the middle of the room for the girls to relax and watch the movie.

This past weekend we went to the Venecia Farms where they had a pumpkin patch, corn maze, farm animals, and cow train. We had such a good time. Madilyn loved seeing the farm animals and most of all the baby pigs. We even made it through the whole corn maze playing a game kind of like Clue. The killer ended up being the duck who used a hammer in the barn. Everyone that knows me knows my favorite game growing up was Clue. So playing this game in the corn maze was a lot of fun.

The Cow Train...chu chu!!

Having a blast running wild in the corn maze. :)
