Halloween weekend turned out to be super-fun even though the weather didn't cooperate. Friday, Emery and I attended a Gwinnett Area Mommies Halloween party at a nearby park, however , the weather was rainy and windy so we didn't stay too long. Saturday, Daddy took off and we had a a wonderful breakfast of Pumpkin Pancakes. We decided then and there that that would be our morning ritual for Halloween! Then we got Emery all dolled up in her Halloween costume and hit Target for some festive pics in her kitty-cat outfit. Though I think we got some good ones, she wasn't into it and didn't smile much in them. She's got her two front teeth starting to come in so I know that has affected her mood. Afterwards, Grandma Ballinger and Donnie came over and we all had lunch at the house. Even though the weather was still kind of dreary, Daddy and I decided to take Emery out for a little trick or treating just up and down our street once it got a little dark. I think she really enjoyed it...she even got to pick out treats from the buckets at each house. When we took her home, we let explore her treasures (not eating them of course)! And she had a candy in each hand! I think she is already going to be a chocolate lover! She especially liked rattling the Nerds in her hands...guess it made for a nice maraca!
The next morning the weather was just beautiful and we all--Bear and Lola included--took a nice drive up to Helen. We grabbed a picnic lunch and headed to De Soto Falls for a hike up to the Falls. On the way, we made a pit stop in Helen and walked through town. Just love this gorgeous fall weather!
