our little fairy

Happy Halloween!! What a totally fun holiday! Maelin remembered last Halloween enough to be really excited about the whole thing this year. And thankfully Daddy doesn't mind having 'pumpkin carving' on his list of responsibilities :) He and Maelin carved two...both of which were proudly displayed on the front porch until they rotted and attracted the bees. Ugh.

Here's our little goblin! This year Maelin when i asked Maelin what she wanted to be for Halloween, she said that she wanted to wear the fairy costume in the dress-up box under her bed - haha! A money-saver to be sure, but i really wanted to buy her something cuter. So i went on a fairy costume hunt and found this one at The Children's Place. I love that store :)

Maelin spent the morning trick-or-treating and scavenger-hunting at school, and in the evening we made the rounds in North Branch. We started at Nana and Papa's, went to great gramps and gram's house, stopped to see a few aunts and uncles, and then rounded out the night at Grandpa Les and Grandma Pam's place.
