Getting Our Cashe Money's Worth

This year, I found Cashe's Halloween costume on sale at Babies R Us for 40% off. Since kids grow so fast, costumes last for a few hours for only one year & I wasn't about to lose any money on my $16.00 purchase this year! So, for $4.00 per 'event', I feel good about our Little Monster's purchase.




Trick-or-Treating on Halloween Night



Trick-or-Treating at the Cantrells





Trick-or-Treating at Auntie Kelly's



Making a few quick calls from Kelly's phone.



Trick-or-Treating at the Zantjers




Hangin' out with John & Pearl.





We even made it to visit Franziska, Cashe's former daycare lady who had retired in May.

She was so surprised & so excited to see how much Cashe has grown in 5 months.
What a fun-filled sugary night for us both!



Moehlmann Kids' Halloween Party




Headed into the haunted Moehlmann house.




Check out that belly.




Melissa is incredible. She outdoes herself all the time (& has 4 kids!)


Incredible watermelon brain.




But who wants to eat the fruit brain when you can bury your face in chocolate frosting?




Cashe laughed & laughed while playing the Halloween bowling game.
There were game stations set up all over the house for the kids to travel around & win prizes. At the end of the night, the Moehlmanns had built a life-size, haunted maze for the kids to walk through. It was phenomenal.



Ella, Cashe & Kohlman at Jen's ping-pong game (that involved no beer although it does certainly look like beer pong).



More bowling laughter ...



MOPS Trick-or-Treating at the

Spring Creek Assisted Living Home




Cashe & Caden: the Monster & the Ghost.







Parading through Spring Creek for all those who lived there.




Wandering down the wrong hallway.







... but too cute in his costume to care. Instead, I had to stop him for a photo.



Donnelly Harvest Party

Speaking of talented women I am blessed to have in my life, Dianne Donnelly is yet another woman who hosted a fantastic kids' harvest party.





There were games & games & more games for the kids to play that day.
Amber Joy's game included boxes in which the kids had to put their hands in a hole to guess what was really inside the box that was labeled with things like, "fingernails" (broken sunflower seeds) & "bat wings" (pig ears). It was so creative.



This golf game was Cashe's favorite.



As well as throwing the ball with Maddie, one of his babysitters.





What a great month of monster events!
