Halloween
Halloween was so much fun this year. The week before Halloween I took her down to Children’s Museum of La Habra and we carved a pumpkin and then we did a wind sock in the shape of a bat. Our friends, Victoria and her daughter, Sophia, joined us. The museum offers this every year. It is free. They have really cool stensiles, all of the carving tools and the tables are covered to keep things cleaned. Their craft room where we made the bat had all free materials so we could make the windsocks. We are so lucky to have this place in our community!!
The weather in the last 2 weeks of October has been HOT. We are talking mid to upper 90’s every day. It certainly didn’t feel like autumn weather here!! I didn’t want to get the girls costumes that made them too hot but when they trick or treated at night I wanted them to be warm. So we decided to do 2 different costumes. All 4 girls were ballerinas. They looked so precious in their pink tutus and matching ballet slippers. Their costumes for the evening of Halloween for trick or treating were Minnie Mouses.
In the morning I took the girls to the La habra Heights 30th anniversary celebration at the LHH park. They had pony rides, bouncy houses, petting zoos, hay rides and fun activities. Everything was complimentary. We had so much fun. The girls rode the ponies twice!!
In the afternoon, we attended a Halloween party at Presbyterian Hospital in Whittier (PIH) for the annual NICU party. They had a really fun bubble mania where the kids could make life size bubbles. They looked so cute…4 ballerinas making all of these bubbles.
In the evening we attended our La Habra Mom’s Club annual Halloween party at my friend Fay’s house. We had a costume parade, played games, ate yummy appetizers and enjoyed every one’s company. It was a lot of fun.
I was supposed to take thre triplets to Savannah’s Halloween party at preschool but I was sick. Savannah was a ballerina at school. I ate some tamales my neighbor brought over and got really sick. I think it was food poisoning. So I was out of commission and couldn’t do anything. I felt much better the day of Halloween thank goodness. So mommy and daddy took our 4 adorable Minnnie mouses out for trick or treating in their choo choo wagon. They filled their pumpkins with candy!! The neighborhood was the busiest with bustling trick or treating that I can remember in the 10 years that I have lived here. I came home to give out candy and Cliff continued on with the girls to trick or treat. It was so much fun!!
