I'm a Dress Mommy!

Yesterday I volunteered at Katelyn's school for their Halloween Carnival. All of the kids brought their costumes and we dressed them up and had a small carnival outside. When all the kids were showing me their costumes and telling me what they were Katelyn kept saying, "I'm a Dress Mommy! Look at me..." I think she was just a little jealous at all the attention I was getting from the other kids. She didn't like the fact that they were also calling me Mommy. But we were paired up with two other little girls from her class, Alex the witch and Emma the pumpkin in order to go around and play games. They had face painting, a duck pond, a sand dig, a bean bag toss, go fish, basketball, pin the broom on the witch, and a cake walk. The girls seemed to have a lot of fun until it started raining. Emma and Katelyn got cold so we went inside while Alex stayed with her mom and read stories. They laid down for nap and Katelyn didn't really seem to mind that I left her there the rest of the day.

Last night we went to a few houses trick-or-treating and she got more candy than we know what to do with. But we all had fun and we enjoyed a delicious dinner with Dale and Cathy of a chicken tamale bake from Cooking Light that was really good. Cathy also loaned me a beautiful oil painting to hang in my office. I am so excited about decorating!

Here are some pics for you to enjoy....
