Fall Fun

The fall fun continued the week of Halloween. The kids had a little fall festival at school that included picking and decorating a pumpkin and having a small party with a bounce house and treats. It was Crazy Hat Day so I pulled out all of the hats from our costume closet and Madison chose the Cat in the Hat, Hayden the pirate and Payson the hard hat.

We went to a super-fun Halloween party at a friends' house that included games, food and a cake walk!

Back in our neighborhood the kids enjoyed a Fall Festival with a petting zoo, music and cupcake decorating!

Cupcakes never get old with 2 year olds!

We hosted a little Halloween cookie decorating party for our playgroup. Hayden was so excited to decorate cookies that, before guests even arrived, she patiently sat at the table for 25 minutes before she finally gave up. Yes, Hayden sat still for 25 minutes!

The decorating started when the kids arrived. Sugar + craft = happy kids!
I made these fun Frankenstein Jell-O snacks for the kids along with some other festive treats.

Breaking New: The Melker kids love babies! Okay, so we've known this for a while and this day was no different. They watched Vaune's every move as she cared for Vivien.

The girls even loaded her up with two additional babies when she had Vivien in a sling. Triplets!

And all three of my kids insisted on helping carry Baby Vivien out. We even have a baby doll named after her! They're going to be great babysitters one day!
