halloween week

Jason and I had a chance for a couple of date nights this week.  Both kids had sports (which was a change of schedule) and it allowed us to go out for a work event at Lewis Ginter on Tuesday.

I made fun treats for everyone for Halloween.  

The Atlee baseball team had their annual Halloween game on Halloween this year.  It's so fun to watch high school boys run around a baseball field in ridiculous costumes.  The game had elements of Banana ball like running the bases in the opposite direction. 

I ran around last minute on Monday trying to round up all the Ninja Turtles for Bryce and his buddies. 

We were at Marshall's with my mom recently and Emmy found this cute costume. 

Emmy went trick or treating with some friends from school.  They drew names and exchanged boo baskets, ate pizza and got plenty of candy.

Bryce and his buddy Brayden.

Bryce and Avery.

Bryce has been to Halloween Haunt at Kings Dominion in the past, but Emmy had never been.  She has a friend who told her it was fun, so she wanted to go this year.  Tonight was the last night, and we managed to make it out and with her friend who was celebrating her birthday.  She made it about an hour, but it was not her thing.  Jason and I have never been into scary stuff and now Emmy knows for herself why we're not fans. 

We'll go back for a more pleasant experience when they open up Winterfest, but that will likely be our last KD visit for a while.  The kids weren't into rides and the park this year, so we won't be renewing our passes next year.
