Costume Run and Halloween Party Fun

The weekend after my marathon Linnea got to do another race...this time however, she was in costume, it was outside and much farther (1/3 of a mile) than the lil one at the marathon expo :) I have always wanted to partake in the Great Pumpkin Chase at Lake Elmo so we finally did and it was awesome. I hope to run the 10k of it next year :) But this year it was all for Linnea and two of her friends. It was quite a chilly morning so she wore her "Pillow" costume...Pillow is a character in one of her fav shows/book series Lalaloopsy. 

dancing before the race!


Linnea's biggest fan!


proud finisher!
At the end she received a medal, a caramel apple and even a pumpkin! It was a great morning followed by a great afternoon in a different costume at our friends Halloween Party...


We decorated cupcakes.


 made a 5 Little Pumpkins craft.


And played pin the nose on the jack-o-lantern and Bingo.

I lead the craft (surprise, surprise I know) and Gail did everything else. What a fun little idea! We love our neighbors! When we were done the big kids played upstairs, Harper practice climbing up the stairs while mom followed behind over and over and over again since she has no clue how to go down the steps. Then we headed home for a great evening relaxing with a new movie. 


BRAVE time!


We found Brave to check out at the library and we really liked it! I was worried it may be scary but it was just fine. I may have liked it more than Linnea but that's okay :)
