Happy Halloween & Happy Birthday Too!

After the freezing weather that we have had this week, it warmed up and was nice enough to go out and play on the swings today! They kids were so happy to be outside.

We had grandpa and grandma Hawkins over for dinner tonight. (Not sure how I missed getting pictures with them!) We made a spooky meal. The kids loved looking at all the creepy food, but only really ate the soup.
Daddy took the kids trick or treating while I passed out candy. This was the first year that Vela understood that she would get treats by running from door to door. She loved it!

Hema had so much fun. They did our neighborhood and then dropped Vela off with me and then went for another hour or so. He got to ride on daddy's shoulders and thought it was a blast!

Vela spent the rest of the night looking out the window and waiting for kids to come. She loved opening the door and seeing all the kids. After we gave them treats she would slam the door and then turn to me and say "Give me 5." I guess she thought we were doing a great job with the treats.

Hema got a lot more candy then Vela!

Today is also our sweet Katie's birthday!! We talked with her today and love her so much! Hope all your birthday wishes come true this year Katie! We love you forever!!!
