You know I had to get this shirt (thanks Ashley for tipping me off that these are a thing!). So cute! And it works best on people who have a decent bump, which I am rocking these days ๐Ÿ™‚

Four days into living in Indiana and it was Halloween time, something I was looking forward to because of 4 adorable kiddos at the most PERFECT Halloween age: 5, 3, 2, almost 1.

Plus, my Aunt Julie was in town so it was definitely a family affair. I remember past Halloweens looking back at photos of my nieces and nephews and being sad I couldn’t be there. Well, this is exaclty why we moved to Indiana — so we don’t have to miss those fun experiences.

And Indianapolis Halloween is no joke. These people go ALL out like I’ve never seen before. The street we went trick or treating was like a movie scene. Nearly every house was decked out with haunted decorations, spooky sounds, spider webs and adults dressed up to scare.

There were mobs of kids everywhere — and lots of adults with “to-go” cups if you know what I mean ๐Ÿ™‚

I had a lot of fun with the kids…they were super cute and Indy proved to be a great spot for the holiday. I kept thinking how Jacob will be almost a year old this time next year — wow! Wonder what we will dress him up as? For now, I need to find a cute little Christmas outfit since he will be a newborn Christmas baby!

Hope you had a great Halloween too!
