Happy Halloween

In the past 3 weeks, Alayna was able to wear her costume 5 times! I took her to the Mankato library a couple weeks before Halloween for an event where there was a magician/comedian who did a great show, suggested some fun books and gave tips. Then the kids got to trick or treat around the library.

On the Sunday before Halloween we took the girls up to MSU-Mankato for an event put on by the athletes. Each sport had a station and then kids got candy. Baseball team had the net to pitch in and a guy with a radar gun to tell the kids what they got. Alayna's first toss was a 13 and he said to try for 14 and she got an 18! Next was bowling, volleyball, swimming (threw goggles in a bucket), bean bags, hockey (which she netted 3 of 4 against a defender), basketball (she swished the first shot), football toss in a net (harder but she got it), track had hurdles, golf had a little mini put put hole and more. It was fun. Then Monday she got to wear her costume to preschool and daycare. Monday night was Halloween so I can say we got great use out of hers!
