Happy Halloween

JaNae and I dressed as vendors from the "Happy Popcorn Co." and Katie was a bag of popcorn.





Katie even ate some of the yummy chili; this Ward Halloween party included a chili cook off.





She had to take small waddling steps in her box; she couldn't reach any candy into her mouth; but she was a trooper. She became resourceful toward the end...she started eating the popcorn off the front of her costume.

Grandparent Shout-out

Katie loves grandma, grandpa, and ice cream cones.

Harvest Fest

Last week we enjoyed the annual Champaign Park District's "Harvest Fest." We all had tons of fun with the petting zoo, crafts, pumpkin rolling, balloon animals, and Grandpa's Banjo band. Yee Hawww. And, like any good festival-goers, we ended the day with Fryer Tuck's curly fries. Yum.

Strinking a pose with the hay bales and scare crows.


What a happy family.


Encounters with glue.


Tanner girls checking out the "other" petting zoo (fish).


Katie seemed more timid this year than last at the petting zoo; probably because she's been hearing us tell her "don't touch that" or "be soft" for a whole year.

Yeah, we had a grand ole time; you all should come next year.
