Excuse the long post and tons of pictures, but we had such a good time this past week and I wanted to make sure we remember every last bit of it!
This was the first Halloween that Quinn was able to go trick or treating and wow, did we have fun! She dressed up like a butterfly this year. The first time she wore the costume was for her Halloween party at school. I took about a million pictures before we left, because I was sure she would destroy it on the playground!!
 |
| Quinn was being so funny about her wings, she kept trying to fly! |
Later that night, she got to wear it again for a very special "Daddy & Me" party at school. I was SO sad that I didn't get to go. I was really tempted to dress up and sneak in! But Dean did a great job of taking pictures so they could show me everything they did.
 |
| note the "tie" around Quinn's neck, they made these for the daddy's at school, but Quinn wouldn't let Dean wear his! |
 |
| I love this-- the "after" shot! notice the paint & cookie crumbs everywhere. she had such a good time with her daddy! |
On Saturday, Quinn & I went to Wills Park for some more Halloween fun!
 |
| soo tired, I had to wake her up from her nap to go! |
 |
| she is sporting a shirt her buddy "bair" gave her.... the Verdigets weren't feeling too great this year , so the girls didn't get to see each other dressed up ;( |
 |
| she could have stayed in here for hours |
while we were gone Dean & Kathryn had some quality time...
and speaking of Kathryn, can you believe she is already THREE MONTHS OLD???!! and still as cute as can be!
On Halloween, Juan and Bethany came to visit and check in on the girls.
That night, Dean & I dressed the girls up and took Quinn trick or treating. She had SO much fun, she wanted to go in EVERY house and loved seeing all of the other kids and the decorations along the way!

 |
| we made sure the first house we went to was Melissa's (the girls' baby-sitter). Quinn didn't know what to think.. |
 |
| but she got SO excited when she realized Melissa was there! |
 |
| hmmm, this isn't too bad!! |
 |
| Kathryn LOVED trick or treating! |
 |
| Quinn was so excited to see all of the decorations |
 |
| "hello ghost!" |
And when we got home, the girls each had a little snack.
Quinn's first piece of candy, and to say she enjoyed it would be an understatement. When it was time for bed, she went upstairs crying "MORE CANDY"!! When she said her prayers, it was "Dear God, thank you for Mommy, Daddy, Candy, Baby Sister..."
ok...
ReplyDeletea- tell dean to continue getting the haircut he has in the picture from quinn's school party. it looks SO good- not sure what's different than usual but it's a good look for him. i would also like to say how much i loathe that my brothers can go grey and work it like nobody's business and i have to keep pouring color on mine week after week. thanks driskell genes.
2- quinn has the best 2 year old head of hair i've ever seen on a little girl. un.be.lieve.able. i mean, supermodels would be jealous.
c- if kathryn gets any bigger or cuter before i finally get to meet her, i'm just going to lose it. please tell her to slow down. the cheeks are almost more than i can handle.
4- you. look. amazing. pregnancy does you so kindly- way more kindly than it does me. but you recover SO fast- i wish i could say the same. but, at least we both make cute babies. so, i guess i can live with that. :o)
love you- all 4 of you!
and miss y'all like crazy! can't wait for december to get here- even if it's just a few hours of family time. :o)
