Trick or Treat

Eight inches of snow delayed Berwick's trick-or-treat night. For some reason I don't understand our town and neighboring towns celebrate Halloween the day before the holiday. When Anna awoke Sunday morning she was so happy to see the snow. We made our first snowman of the season.

Princess Ariel

Today Anna wore her Halloween costume to school. Although their walk to the mechanic shop was cancelled, she still had loads of fun. She loves her Ariel costume so much she has only taken it off to sleep and eat the last two days. During her nap I have hid it so it stays in one piece for Sunday's trick-or-treating. Wish me luck that Anna isn't too sad when she wakes up!

Emery Farm

Anna and I headed to Emery Farm this morning for our second field trip with her school. We enjoyed a spooky hay ride that Anna kept telling me "Anna scared" on our way to the pumpkin patch. After a snack and a game of tag the kids led the parent through the corn maze. Anna thought the corn maze was the same as Farmer Renkins' maze on Curios George. Anna got a pumpkin and also brought home lots of mud after her fall on the playground!

Touch-A-Truck 2011

The touch-a-truck event at Pease Airports is one of our favorite fall outings. This year Anna spent the time mostly looking from a distance. She did enjoy the moving truck and popping the bubble wrap. Her favorite was the "dancing truck" which she now knows sells ice cream. I'm hoping she forgets by spring when they start driving around our neighborhood again!

NIA

We took a quick trip to the park after our long car ride to CT. (This was a few weeks ago.) Anna spent a long time swinging with Daddy before she made the three of us lineup for the slide. We enjoyed the family outing and the wonderful weather!
