Halloween

Halloween was fun this year. Katelynn was more interested in what was going on but still didn't quite understand all that was going on. We took her to our ward trunk or treat party on Saturday night and she had a blast chasing around all the little dogs that were there. Since Bruno and Cocoa (our dogs) are 80 and 100 lbs it is hard for her to enjoy them because they just push her around and knock her down with their tails. So, seeing all the little dogs just made her day. She just wanted to hang around them all night long. After visiting for a little bit the kids started coming around to the trunks. Katelynn stayed in our undecorated trunk with us and watched all the kids come around. She was quite entertained with that and the dum-dum that Daddy gave her.
We didn't make it to the pumpkin patch this year but she didn't miss it. We tried to go one day and got to the patch and found out that they didn't open until 11 and we were there at 10:30, we didn't want to wait around for them to open so we just came home. I carved some artificial pumpkins a few weeks ago and she has enjoyed playing bouncy ball with them. We had some pumpkins just not real ones this year.
On Sunday we were at home and passed out candy to the trick-or-treaters. When the doorbell rang for the first time Katelynn came running down the hall to see who was at the door. Then seeing the orange bowl full of candy she was even more excited and wanted that bowl. She caught on pretty quick that when the doorbell rang we would get the bowl and go to the door. She loved seeing all the kids come by and wanted to go home with a couple of them.
Katelynn was little red riding hood for Halloween and I thought that she was so cute.
