Happy Halloween!!

We had a wonderful Halloween weekend. Friday night we went with some friends to see a Super Hero show at Second Baptist. It was so much fun! The Super Hero's are from VBS. My girls were too little in the summer to attend VBS but still enjoyed the show. The show was based on the verse 1 Timothy 4:12 Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity. I LOVE it! It was great! We were lucky that Reese and Saige went to church with my mom (Second) and got the cd with ALL the songs from the show. Score!!


Sunday on Halloween our community group from church did something called "Rice and Beans". We ate a simple dinner, rice and beans, and donated money (the amount we would spend on a dinner out) for a family for Christmas. It was a lot of fun. The kids all played games and rode bikes, cars etc outside. The adults had time to chat. Then we ALL got dressed and went trick or treating. We only went to a few houses and then packed up and went back to our section to see our neighbors too.




The girls really enjoyed trick or treating. Reese was so excited and went running from house to house. Saige liked getting candy but made Daddy hold to bucket because it was getting heavy. We didn't go to too many houses (maybe 2 streets total) but we sure did get a lot of candy. By the end of the night Saige had two suckers in each hand. We made it home and I let the girls eat 4 pieces each and then we got ready for bed. I took about half and then put some of it in the bucket on the porch. Theres no way the girls could (or should) ever eat that much candy. Saige wouldn't let me wash the black off her nose so she went to bed with a black Minnie Mouse nose. How sweet is that?!?! It was a really fun night! Here are a few pictures!
