First Halloween!

Brielle's first Halloween was quite the event! It began on Friday, the 30th, at Stroller Strides. There was a parade after class and there were lots of little ones all dressed up in costume! Brielle couldn't partake in the running around that the other kids were doing, but she enjoyed looking around while Mommy chatted with other moms. She soon got tired of that and fell asleep in my arms! It was then off to KIS for a visit with the teachers and students. We walked into the cafeteria during the fifth grade lunch and all of my last year's students started yelling "Mrs. Howard! Mrs. Howard!" and came running over. It was quite the welcome, but Brielle was getting hungry, and a little overwhelmed so her greeting to all the students was to cry! Good thing it was loud in the cafeteria! After Mommy socialized with the fifth and fourth grade teachers while Brielle ate, it was time to meet my current fourth grade class under the substitute, Mr. Veneto. The students were very enthusiastic and told me all about what they were doing and asked me a few questions as well. We then were off to KES for the annual Halloween parade of the kindergarten, first, and second graders. Brielle was dressed in costume of course!

This ghost bib is from Mary Pat. Thanks MP!

Halloween day was very eventful as well! After spending the morning at the house, Brielle, Daddy, Mommy, Calvin, and Bella all headed off to West Bridgewater. It was such a nice day outside so we took a walk around the War Memorial Park before heading to Nana and Grandpa's house. Brielle loved looking around at all of the kids, especially her cousins, Ashlee and Brittany. Because it was such a nice night, we took Brielle in the stroller while all the kids trick-or-treated.

Kisses from Daddy!

Hugs from Mommy!

It was such a great day, and Brielle ended it with her adorable PJs from her Auntie Becky. Everyone agrees that Brielle is the cutest strawberry ever! Thanks for checking in with us!
