Halloween Night

The White Family dressed up together again this year! We were girl butterflies and boy caterpillars. Mary loved trick-or-treating. She was upset when we stayed to long at our friends house to chat. She started crying and said, "Let's keep walking, guys." It was a beautiful night and we enjoyed ourselves.

Girl Butterflies.

Boy Caterpillars. I constructed Mike's costume. I love using the hot glue gun. I forgot how wonderful of tool it really is.

Our insect family!

MEAC Halloween Party

MEAC (Madisonville Education and Assistance Center), my new place of employment had their annual Halloween Party so we headed on over to have a fun time. Mary was a ballerina, thanks to her cousin Peyton's hand-me-downs. And Patrick was a Packer. They had hay rides for the little ones-such a clever idea, games, popcorn and face-painting. Mary's new favorite arts and crafts is to paint our faces-pictures to follow. Another fun time!

Party in the Park

We headed to the park with Nana and Papa. Patrick tried out the swings. Mary tried out her tights. (She has been scared of them in the past.) I tried to take a nap:) We had a wonderful time.

HalloZooween

Mary and Patrick donned their first Halloween outfits at the Cincinnati Zoo. We had a great time with Nana and Papa while trick or treating around the zoo.

Minges Pumpkin Festival

Mike had the day off so we headed to the Pumpkin Festival. It was a beautiful day. Mary and Mike participated in a 3-legged race, a wheelbarrow race and a combination 3-legged and blind wheelbarrow race. Mary had a blast with her Daddy while Patrick and I watched from the sidelines.

Feeding Time

Mary enjoys helping us out. She fed Patrick his rice cereal last week. She did a great job.


Mary had her first cream horn, provided by Papa. I didn't know they even existed. She seemed to think it was an ice cream cone and just ate the cream for awhile. What a nut!

Dressing Up

Mary likes putting on clip-on earrings that Peyton, her cousin, gave me and wearing her head-band. Doesn't she look older than 2 1/2?


Patrick is sporting Mary's tights. Mary was a little scared of wearing her tights so Mike thought it would be a good idea to put them on his head. Then it was Patrick's turn. Our little bunny look alike didn't seem to be phased.
