Butterfly Halloween

Bella was a pink butterfly for Halloween this year.  We went trick or treating with our friends from Michigan. It didn't take Bella long to catch on. She watched a bunch of kids a few times and then she joined in. I don't think she actually ever said Trick or Treat but she did thank everyone after they gave her candy. 

This picture was taken from the day of my mom's Halloween party. That weekend Bella had some awful sores in her mouth and she wasn't much for partying. But once the girl cousins showed up she cheered up quit a bit, but she wasn't her normal cheery self for most of the night.

Pumpkins, Pumpkins, Pumpkins

Here we are at Wiard's Pumpkin Patch in Michigan. We went last year with Bella. This year Bella wasn't afraid of pumpkins. 
Here is Bella and her friend Jamison at the Dallas Arboretum . We went here also year also. This year Bella was able to visit the petting zoo. She loves petting the animals.
Here is Todd with the girls at a little place that was selling pumpkins. This place is on the way home from Bella's school, and she would always yell out "PUMPKINS" when we drove by. So one day we went after school and ran into one of her friends from school.
The next two pictures are from a pumpkin patch that we went to in Texas. It is in Grapevine and was disappointing to me and Todd since we had been to the Wierd's Pumpkin Patch the year before. Bella didn't seem to mind though. For Texas that might be the best we can expect.
