Halloween Play Date

The Wednesday before Halloween, Ashley hosted a Halloween playdate.  Lots of Avery's friends were in attendance, so she had a ton of fun!  I wish that I had taken many more pictures but unfortunately, I didn't. Ash had everything so cutely decorated and had amazing food including mummy dogs for the babies and pumpkin shaped rice crispy treats- my favorite!  The babies played at the beginning, attempted a craft, and ate some lunch.  Here are some shots of the kiddos playing-

Ave carried around this toy for the majority of the time and even took a bite  out of it- sorry Luke!

Ave loves spending time with Ash

 We played outside also and I realized that Avery has a love for chalk.  She would not put it down.  She like to take it out of the bucket, draw a little, put it back in the bucket, and repeat.  After some playtime, Ash had prepared a craft that involved sticking cotton balls on a ghost.  Ave liked to stick them down and then pick them right back up so I had to do some major assisting but it turned out really cute.  Ash had even gotten the kids a Halloween plate and a little book for them to read.  Avery was in heaven!

Before we left, we wanted to get a shot of all the kiddos.  Avery is not looking but I was amazed that they were still enough to capture this.

I say this all the time, but I am so thankful for great friends that have kids around Avery's age.  It's great to be going through this phase in life with amazing people in the exact same place as me!
