Halloween and Camping








Ok I don't really have a good excuse for not blogging in a while.  We have been busy around here, but isn't everyone.  So like I said no good excuse!  :)  The girls have really been enjoying the fall weather.  They love to be doing anything outside...  They had a great time dressing up for Halloween, and got to go trick or treating a few times.  Alexandra was intimidated by a few costumes but overall for a 19 month old she was a good trick or treater.   Samantha got to do a trick or treat "parade" at pre-school and all the parents got to come back to their class and hear fall songs that they had learned.  I spent a whole month listening to her sing at the top of her lungs the following:
I'm a little pumpkin short and stout,
here is my handle here is my spout
When it's Halloween and you are out,
lift my lid and hear me shout, BOO!

We went camping with some friends this weekend to Robber's cave.  We had a really great time.  The girls got to make smores, ride bikes, and we did a couple of hikes.  It is really fun to hike up to the cave and play in it.  It isn't an easy hike for kids but they really did a good job.   Samantha absolutely loves camping and you know that she has had fun when she starts crying about having to go home.  It's good to know she wouldn't have a problem living out of our camper!  :)
