Sadie had an awesome time at school and trick-or-treating. They had a big party at school and Sadie got to eat lots of fun stuff that she normally doesn't get! They painted their pumpkins, colored and had a great time. Later we met Aunt Kiki, Uncle Benny and Ciara in in my Dad's neighborhood for some trick-or-treating. This was Sadie's first year and I wasn't sure how she would like it. I was thankful that Ciara was there too, I really feel like she was a great encouragement to Sadie and they seemed to have a lot of fun together. They both looked adorable. Ciara was a sweet angel and Sadie was a tap dancer/ballerina. She wore my first recital costume (thanks mom, for saving it). It was neat to see her in it. Sadie walked the whole time, well until right at the end. I was so happy that she had such a great time! I am excited that the fall season is under way. I love Thanksgiving and Christmas/Hanukkah. I just love the smells and the coziness of the holidays. Adam and I always make hot cocoa and sit outside. I love to drive around and look at Christmas lights (yes, I am a dork). This year I think will be even more fun because we can do gingerbread houses and holiday cookies. I am excited to see her little face light up at all of the excitement of the season! We have been talking about what to get Sadie for both holidays. I asked her what she wanted and she keeps saying "a kitty and a doggy"...I don't think that Santa will be dropping either of those off at our house!! So, I guess we'll have to see what else she might want...time to get creative!
