Halloween weekend proved to be a beautiful and fun-filled 2 days of family time! We began Saturday with an early morning trip to our old farmer's market down in Houston. We loaded up with some yummy veggies from our favorite local organic farm; Farmer Donna was so excited to hold Lilah (in full bee costume) for a while. Farmer Donna and her husband grow the food that we are offering to Bean as her first foods! Chris and I shared a delicious banana crepe while listening to some music. After leaving the farmer's market we headed over to Hermann Park for a nice family picnic in the rose garden.
The weather was absolutely beautiful!! After our picnic, we walked over to the Houston Museum of Natural Science and walked around for a couple of hours; this was Bean's first trip to the museum, and she really enjoyed it! We look forward to going back soon. She was much more interested in the exhibits than I thought she would be.
After a long nap at home Saturday afternoon, Lilah was ready for Halloween night!! Gigi and Grumps came over and volunteered to hand out candy while Chris escorted Bean and I around the neighborhood. Chris decorated the garden cart with glow sticks and padded the bottom and sides with blankets and pillows. Lilah and I sat in the cart while Chris pulled us around the block; Lilah was able to watch the big kids treat or treating. She is now ready for next year!! As you can see, Chris and I dressed as beekeepers while Bean was a bee!
Overall, our little family had a wonderful Halloween weekend; we are so glad that the weather cleared up just in time for the celebration.
