Thing 2

Thing 2 and Miss B stand around the coconut ghosts!!
Madi had to be a literary character for the halloween party at school. We thought thing 2 was fitting!

Thing 2 talks to the witch.


Thinking the blue hair was a cute touch to the costume turned out to be a mess for the teacher when she started sweating and the dye ran down her face!



Awwwwww




Nope, not a wig!





The teacher gets jumped by spiderman and thing 2





Princesses, spidermen....wheres the originality in that???!!!








Halloween

You know it's fall when people are dressed up and the LSU banner is flying!!


Princess K debates on going in a puddle and then decides to walk around.



Princess in training B looks to see if anyone is watching and jumps right in.




Just barely getting started, Madi wants to show off what candy she's already racked up while Policeman L looks on.





Yep, the crazies are out on Halloween.






Madi strikes a pose with the wig earlier in the day.







Who ARE these people?? And what are they doing in our yard??










Madi and Miss B discuss halloween candy getting strategy.







Mr B even got a little spooked!










Policeman L scolds Madi and then politely tells her she only gets one piece of candy at his house!!











Madi tells Policeman L thats not how it works at her house!!












Thought we'd see a lot more decorated houses, but sadly, no. This was a cute one though.










Princess K pulls her own carriage.














Again, who ARE these people and why are they at our house??

Wolf Walk and halloween fun

The "winning look" for the 1 mile wolf walk with your pet. Madi and Boudreaux won 1st place in the medium dog category. I don't know how a mini-dachshound is considered a medium sized dog, but hey, a win is a win!!

The winning duo!!
painting a doggy pumpkin blue!!





Sun in her eyes! About 85 degrees...doesn't really make you feel too "fallish"



Forget standing back to throw the rings!! The easier way to win is just walk up and put the rings on!





Firewoman Madi ( forgot to post this with the other fire night pics!)

Pumpkin patch

A pumpkin patch in key west.......we loved it!! Miss K and Miss B watch the fine art of pumpkin coloring from Madi.


Mr K gets his pumpkin finished and Daddy is still working on that tattoo with Madi!

Will the tattoo stay on is the question....



Madi looks for her farmer feet!





Miss B finds probably the smallest pumpkin there while Miss J shows perfect form for pumpkin bowling??





Hay maze and games, how fun!





Finding the right pumpkin......maybe this one is too heavy....







Miss K watches Madi try to lift another heavy one...








Maybe this one is Just right!









Giddy up!












Daddy watches Madi color.












Putting the final perfect touches on....













Navy Ball and babysitting

So we decided not to go to the Navy Ball, but our friends did, and we babysat their daughter for them. Although Miss B is at our house alot, it was the first time we babysat and Madi was pretty excited. Mr S and Miss N look fab for the ball!!

Madi becomes an extra daughter for Miss N!!
Not to be outdone by Mr S and Miss N...the fashion divas take a picture together too! So sweet!





Miss K comes by to see Mr S and Miss N off for the ball.


By the end of the night, we weren't sure if we'd find the girls in Madi's room!! But they sure had fun.

Petting Zoo

So we knew there was a petting zoo near the Sheriff's office....little did we know that it was AT the Sheriff's office!! Hilarious!

We saw some fat pigs, and a pot bellied pig.....most of the animals that they have are abused animals that they were nursing back to health. It was sad to read the stories that they had posted with each animal.
























Nothing like a llama and a parking lot.








Madi pets a miniature horse. And no....it's still not Halloween yet, veils were the accessory choice of the day.












My favorite kind of alligator...one with it's mouth taped shut.








Oooooo, a ferret!! And a convict!! Ooooooo!!











The veiled lady pets a rabbit.














poor turtle...all he wanted was to get back inside his home. Miss B and Madi feel sorry for him too.











Chasing rabbits.














Chasing rabbits was fine, taking one to hold was another story.















Daddy, Miss B and Madi feed the billy goats.


































Madi makes a friend.


















"She thinks my tractors sexy"








































Another Miss B and Madi scope out more animals. A really nice place for Key West....we just learned not to go when the heat index was in the 100's. Whew, it was just too hot that day.
