A Halloween Weekend

 Mimi and Papa came to celebrate with us this past weekend.  We had a little monkey with a really bad cold, but he hung in there.  Sunday night we went to the Reformation Celebration at our church.  Grayson was excited to win a bag of cookies on the cake walk!
 Monday morning, Mimi and Papa insisted on taking Grayson to the zoo, so we loaded up.  It was a beautiful day and we pretty much had the zoo all to ourselves. 


 Grayson still loves the gorillas and monkeys so he had to have his picture taken with the famous Willy B.

We got home just in time for the kids to take a quick nap before the Halloween festivities began.  They weren't too excited about it. 

 We went to a neighborhood party for dinner and then did some trick -or- treating.  This was Grayson's first time and he caught on pretty quickly.  It was priceless to see his face as the neighbors put candy in his bucket.  He thought it was the greatest thing ever!
He was so happy to get home and empty out his pumpkin.

 Our sweet little ladybug even joined in on all the fun.
 Tuesday  morning Papa and Grayson carved a jack-o-lantern.  Better late than never, right?
 We had so much fun and we're still trying to recover from exhaustion of all the activities and 2 sick babies.  Hopefully we'll all be over our colds soon!
Oh yeah!  Look who's sitting up all by herself?!?
