October, Hudson Turns 4 and Halloween

October was a CRAZY month for us.  With festivals, birthdays and Halloween, we were on the go go go.

I will keep it short b/c the pictures pretty much tell the story but here are a few quick hits:

Hudson's soccer season wrapped up.  The Silver team rocked and I already miss coaching them!

Our neighborhood is the center of all things festival in the fall so we took full advantage.  We went to Fall in the Hall, Crievewood United Methodist Block Party and The Music and Molasses Festival.

We also visited Shuckles Corn Maze and pumpkin patch for a day of fun and pumpkin picking.

Both girls finished soccer and started gymnastics.  So far....they are loving it!

Of course, we celebrated Hudson's FOURTH birthday!  We had a Princess and Knight themed party at Dragon Park and I think it was a huge hit!

We even had a special guest!

 There were a lot of kids, sword fights, tiaras, wands, a giant playground, face painting and of course cookie cake!

Hudson is growing up so fast!  She is now 43 inches tall (97%) and 43.6 lbs (91%).  But she is at such a fun age!

Halloween was of course a big deal this year!  The girls wanted to carve the pumpkin like a kitty-cat...so we did our best!  It turned out pretty good!

We also dressed as the cast of Frozen.  Introducing Queen Elsa, Princess Anna, Olaf, Kristoff, Sven and a snowflake!

Sadly it was 30 something degrees with winds over 20 mph, so we only trick-or-treated at one house.  But they had fun handing out the candy at our house!

This weekend we finally made it to the Humane Society to drop off everything Hudson collected at her party.  2 shopping carts full of supplies!  So proud of her!

I apologize in advance for all the pictures but like I said...we have had a busy month!  Big THANKS to Aunt Eileen for being the birthday party photographer!!!!
