Halloween Fun

Yes, I realize that it is almost Thanksgiving and I am now just getting around to posting about Halloween. At least it is BEFORE Thanksgiving, right. I should at least get credit for that. 

Carving Pumpkins:

She was totally grossed by the "guts" of the pumpkin, lol.

Here is from our Church's Trunk-or-Treat:

She loves to pose.

She was having so much fun running around.

Katie had a dance performance on Halloween. She fell asleep on the way there and was having a hard time waking up. She did great though and most importantly, she had fun!

A few still images from her performance:

And of course, the actually Treat-or-Treating:

K comes to visit

Katie's Birth Mum "K" came to Texas this summer to visit us for the first time. It was so much fun! We have gone to Utah to visit K every year but she has never been here before. It was an even better visit than any of us had hoped for. K was able to see Katie in her own environment and to really see what her personality is like. It was nothing short of amazing!
