On Saturday we got the chance to have a two-fold party. It was Mousey’s birthday, so we all gathered to celebrate her, and we combined that with a little Halloween party for Nina, Lyla, Emme, Ryleigh, and Layne.
The girls played a parachute game with Mousey, ran in the field with Cayenne, and made a spider web craft.
Then a special visitor arrived – Uncle Bo, of course. Who else would arrive in a full bear suit?
Once it started to get dark, the girls got to go on the “spooky” woods walk in search of hidden bones.
Cayenne came down to the woods with us and had a great time in all the fallen leaves. Something about the dry leaves makes her go bananas, and she was having a blast down in the woods. She was racing all over through the leaves then diving in and out of the leaf pile that Poppy had dumped in the woods. At several points, she was so deep in the leaf pile we couldn’t even see her. She loved it though.
After the woods walk, we all sat down to a nice dinner together to celebrate the Mouse. Would you eat anything this guy cooked? It’s a rare occasion to see Bo in the kitchen (moreso in a bear costume), but his spicy bacon brussel sprouts were very good!
The kids had some fun food for their party dinner.
After dinner, we all went down to the woods for a bonfire and smores. As always, each of the girls gave their own version of a scary story, and this year it all ended with them dancing to What Does the Fox Say. Quite entertaining.
Getting the family together is a fun occasion, and we all really enjoyed the time to get together as a family and celebrate Mousey’s birthday and have some Halloween fun.
