Falling into halloween

With Halloween only 1 week away Emerson has been busy celebrating. She has 2 Halloween outfits that she wore every week during the month of October, she went to the Fall festival in the neighborhood and the pumpkin festival downtown. This Friday she has a party at school, a party at Lyla's, trick or treating at Publix then hand out candy at home. The neighborhood has thousands of kids so I am hoping this year I am better prepared, last year we ran out of candy VERY early.
the pumpkin Festival was a lot of fun but I forgot to take pictures. There was a costume contest for babies and pets. The pet winner was Robin Hood (which I did not see) and the 1st runner up was "Walker, Texas Ranger" and it was a cute costume. The baby winner was dressed as Sarah Palin and her dad was dressed as a secret service agent!
For the first time since I had Emerson I did something EARLY - I VOTED!
Yesterday Emerson went to a birthday party fro Ella ray, she turned 2! They had a horse, which Emerson really liked. Emerson climbed right into the action while Ella Ray was opening her gifts. She literally climbed right on top of Ella Ray's grandmother's lap so that she could get a bird's eye view of the birthday girl and her gifts!
Below is a picture of Emerson on the way home... the girl just partied too hard!
