October Festivities
It has been a busy month of dodging the flu bugs at work and daycare and preparing for Halloween festivities. We went to the Zoo Boo at Binder Park Zoo with our friends Sureyya, Justin, and their daughter Sema earlier in the month. We saw maybe 3 animals, but there was trick or treating, games, hayrides for the kids and the place was full of carved pumpkins, scarecrows, and other Halloween decor. And the kids could dress up in their Halloween costumes. It was a bit cold towards the end, but it was a fun night (and we learned more about giraffe gestation/birthing than we ever wanted or needed to know from the greeter at the hayride).

Trick or Treating at the Zoo Boo.
She makes sure her furry friends get turns riding the rocking horse as well.
Last weekend, we took advantage of the warm temperatures and went out on the KalHaven trail for some last minute enjoyment of the fall foliage.
And finally, Halloween festivities. We do Halloween with our friends Brian and Shannon and their son Will and daughter Ashley. This year we went to their new house in Plainwell. Emerson did do some trick or treating around the neighborhood with Will & Ashley, and it lasted about 10 minutes. It was quite cold and windy and Emerson had tears running down her cheeks from the wind and was shivering, so she did more trick or treating from our candy stash inside than she did outside, but she was cool with that.
An attempt at a group photo did, went well, with the exception of Miss Emerson.

My dad handmade this rocking horse for Emerson and she absolutely loves it! Thanks Dad!

And finally, enjoying one of her hard earned treats!
And of course, cleaning out and rearranging our lazy susan.
Hopefully everyone enjoyed their Halloween!
This morning she is on to the next holiday with the arrival of the Toys R Us catalog.
