I am officially ready to blog about our Halloween. Sorry, I haven't had these pictures on my computer until now. If you recall a few posts back, we visited the pumpkin patch. We did end up carving them the day before Halloween, but it was fun. I forgot how gross it feels to gut a pumpkin. It really is disgusting! But I forged on and we made some pretty awesome pumpkins, if I do say so myself. Here are a few pics of the master pieces in the making.....
Here is my pumpkin, of course, a kitty.... precious.....
... and here is Bryon's bat. He did an awesome job, but for the life of me I can't understand why he carved it on the rotten side..... he says because it was the flat side. It still looks great babe!
..... here they are all aglow!
On Halloween day Bryon had to work a graveyard (spooky) so we had to get Madi's trick or treating done early in the day. I took the day off of work and we started off with a visit to the Doctor for Madi's 15 month check up. Her doctor was dressed up as a hippy, which was entertaining in itself, but I thinked it helped mellow Madi out. I'm not sure she recognized who he was. Normally she freaks out as soon as he walks into the room. She was much better this time. Everything checked out great! She was supposed to have a couple of shots, but in past experience, Madi is not the happiest camper the remainder of the day when she gets poked so we opted to wait until her next visit. Next on our agenda was a visit to Grandma's work. Madi was too funny. She didn't want to take any candy. She kept telling everyone no. She was walking up a storm there but those pesky boots were so heavy it was hard for her walk around. Then we headed over to my work and said hi to everyone. Madi made a new best friend. She decided she wanted to hang out with Buddy in his office. Of course he let her color with markers, which she made a BIG mess with. Thanks Buddy! Then we went and met Tenille at the park for lunch. It was far to cold to hang out outside so we ate in our truck. Finally we were off to Bryon's mom and dads. 
Isn't she cute?????
When we got there Bryon's mom had bought Madi some princess sippy cups. She was thrilled.
After trying out her new sippies and playing with the phone it was time to head home and bid daddy adieu and head out to the annual halloween dinner with the fam at Brick Oven. We had our favorite waiter, in another one of his great costumes....
Which Madi was not impressed with.....
It was a great night! We loved seeing everyone and I am pretty sure Mads had fun all dressed up. She never got upset once even when we kept taking her wings on and off. We hauled off with a load of candy! YUMMY!!! Now we are looking forward to another great Halloween next year!
