Halloween Lion November 10, 2009

Filed under: Holiday — egwights @ 5:22 am

I am on the activities committee for our ward – so I went and helped set up our ward Halloween party – which actually turned out to be pretty fun. I didn’t think Emma would get into the kid-activities too well because of all the noise and people everywhere, but she had so much fun! I’m really upset I didn’t take my camera to that part! She went fishing for prizes, candy tosses, duck ponds, put put golf (not good at the end of that game because she didn’t feel they needed the ball and puck back), but the very best was the bean bag toss. She actually threw one from a few feet back and made it through the hole! I’m hoping for a tom-boy, so it may have been luck, but I’m going to say it was a good sign of throwing ability!

These two white balls in her hands are chocholate eye-balls that she personally picked out from her bean bag toss. She loved them so much, she held them in the car the whole ride home, and the ride back to another part! I went to pull her out, and the chocolate and peanut-butter were oozing out of her hands….yummy!

Our party didn’t have a Trunk-Or-Treat, so we crashed my friend Sarah’s ward party, too. We tried to get Emma to say Trick-Or-Treat to them, but she would just have her bag out and say “treat”. The girl knows what’s important.

Sarah and Chris dressed up as Popeye and Olive-oil – very cute!

IMG_1738E I tried to get her treat bag away so I could buckle her up…. not the best idea. She had quite a grip on that thing.

You can’t tell from the pictures – but Brad was pretty sick this day – barely moving on the couch, but got himself up and ready because he didn’t want to miss Emma on Halloween! How sweet huh? What a great Dad! It’s always so much fun going as a whole family – and it was a great Halloween activity!

 

Corn Maze November 3, 2009

Emma and I took another trip to Twin Falls so Brad could concentrate on all his school-work and study for some tests. It was fun to see the family again, and have Emma play and get to know her cousins a little better! We had a lot of fun going to the corn maze with Angela’s family and Curt’s family! We chased kids through the corn maze – losing a few once and a while – and got some fun fall pictures in the corn. (I know I went a little crazy with the photoshop effects – just experimenting a little more)

Believe it or not – this was the best facial expression I could get from Emma unless I was on the other side of the camera; she just kept glaring at everyone! Sorry!

This is our greek-goddess in the corn – my oldest niece Autumn. We’ve been able to spend more time with Angela over the last few months – which has been nice – so Emma always warms up pretty well with her and Keegan especially.

Well – all the pictures are finally downloaded, and I’d love to post all the fun we’ve had the last couple weeks, but our family has caught some type of 24 hour sickness, so this will have to do! Emma loves doing her angry eyes – for laughs from us, but as a serious threat to those she’s not too happy with. I love how animated she can be!
