This Halloween we had quite a few festivities. In addition to the Pumpkin patch and Halloween party, we also had a festival at Preston's school, another parade and Halloween party at his school and then finally Halloween! Its a wonder his costume held up through all of this! At his school festivals, he had a blast, playing games, trunk or treating and he got to be the leader of his Busy Bees class and carry the flag for their costume parade. He thought that was pretty fun! Nana was in town to help me with Kelsey while I helped out at Preston's festivals. The little parade was soooo cute! I started crying, can't believe Preston is so big!
He wanted to be a pirate this year and since Kelsey was too little to pick out her costume, we let Preston pick for her. He wanted her to be a pirate princess, so we all decided to be The Mota Pirate Crew! We had a lot of fun Halloween! Stephen took off that day so we had a fun filled day! We started the day with special treats from mommy and daddy and pumpkin cinnamon rolls. Then we did a Halloween art project with Preston, then painted his smaller pumpkin like Jack from "The Nightmare Before Christmas". Then we carved pumpkins, roasted pumpkin seeds, and made special Halloween treats to take to the neighbors house for the trick or treat pre-party. We kicked off the night at our neighbors for hot dogs and chili and then headed out for trick or treating! Mimi and Papa came over and did some trick or treating with us and then helped us out a little with Kelsey, she didn't want to do quite as much trick or treating as brother ;). I am pretty sure that Halloween is Preston's favorite holiday so far! Fun was had by all! It was a wonderful Halloween, looking forward to many more!
