Give Me the Candy!

We bought passes to the Rec Center and they were having a Halloween Party so we decided to go over there (since it was free with passes) and see how it was. Sadie was excited that they gave her a big candy at the door and ended up carrying it around for the rest of the night. I don’t think I got a good picture of it though.

She wore the monkey costume earlier (thanks Marcia for both costumes) but it was a little small so we decided to put her in the pink poodle costume for the party. It was pretty cute. She was really excited about it being a dog. (In fact the next day she carried the costume around and talked to the dog and kissed it all morning). haha.
Matt was in class so Sadie and I headed in to do the games. The first one was a Tangled station and she had to get the crown. She didn’t really get it but she did get to go down the slide. She really liked the squishy balls they had in the mini pools though.

After Sadie and I went Trick-or-Treating and met some characters. We met more princesses here then we did at Disneyland Smile

She was really freaked out the some of the stations—we met Alladin and Boo and a ton of different characters. She figured out that if she got to pick from the bowls of candy that she could grab more than one so she wouldn’t really take it from the characters. (That and I think she was scared). I thought it was really funny that she would just walk up to the bowls and grab a handful—like two or three each time.
Matt was able to join us earlier than we though since his class got out early! Yay! Which meant that he got to carry her around because we were tired. Matt made Sadie a candy bracelet. She wasn’t a fan at first until Matt showed her how to eat it. In the next picture you can see her holding on to her candy. Both of them. Smile

We went back and did the cake walk and Matt helped her with another game. I would love to know what she was thinking. Must be odd for kids to see all these people dressed up and giving her free candy Smile

The last game we went and did was a pumpkin race in the lazy river of the pool. Matt helped her. We got there first and that lady told us to grab a certain pumpkin since it was so fast.

Sadie didn’t like the splashing that came from throwing the pumpkins in the water. Matt helped her run around and follow the pumpkins around. We ended up getting last place but we still got some more candy.

I saw my old friend and co-coach Aubrey so that was fun.

The last thing we did was go to an animal show. We got to meet this really big snake.

After this we were done (at least I was…) so we headed to go get some food. We had a gift card to Taco Bell so we headed over there and got some food. My two cuties waiting for food.

Kristin and Seth came over after their work party and joined us for a bit. Sadie loved playing “weeee” With Aunt Kristin.

Then she decided she was done for the night. Probably too much candy! Too bad I waited until now to get a shot of her with the actually hood on. She wasn’t diggin’ that.

Ready for bed I think.

It was a fun day and I think Sadie loved it. She will be even more excited next year. Maybe next year we wont be as lame and actually carve pumpkins and dress up…Maybe.

  1. Oh, I thought you were a cute pumpkin and Matt was a cute scarecrow...I guess I got that wrong! ha! That's funny about all of the princesses...the workers look like they actually love kids so that's nice. Kristin looks pretty as always. I'm glad they could join you.
