Saturday evening, Eric and I decided to take Maddie to a Fall Fest being put on at a church near our house. It was quite elaborate. There were pony rides, hay rides, big jumpy slides, train rides, lots of games and candy give-aways and plenty of food. We only stayed for about 45 mins so Maddie wouldn't stay up too late but Maddie was still able to do and see quite a bit.
On Halloween Sunday, we stayed in our neighborhood to give out candy and take Maddie trick-or-treating. This was Maddie's second time trick-or-treating but last year we just carried her to 2-3 houses. This year, Eric took her all around the neighborhood and she had a blast. She understood the concept of getting candy but would try to get several hand-fulls at a time. Ha!
Each year, our neighborhood goes all out for Halloween with several culdesac parties, a haunted house across the street from us and lots of mingling with our neighbors. I look forward to it every year.
Since I'm less than 2 weeks away from baby #2s arrival, I didn't do a whole lot of walking this year, but had a fun time giving out candy and watching Maddie trick-or-treat at our neighbors. It was nice to see Maddie have such a fun time and look so adorable as a piggy.
