Halloween Fail

I so wanted to make Jenna’s first Halloween exciting. I know she wouldn’t remember it, but I still had high hopes. I wanted to dress her up, and show her off. And I did get to to that… We went to a small Halloween party last night. Jenna in her little white tiger costume, I was a hippie chick, Danny was a farmer. She was a hit at the party.

But all I really wanted to do was take her to a pumpkin patch. I remember, as a kid, I always begged my parents to take my sister and I to the pumpkin patch every year. I wanted to walk in the mud and pick out my very own pumpkin. (I went with school once and loved it so much!) But, we always settled for a store bought pumpkin. I know Jenna wouldn’t remember that she went. But I would. And I would show her the pictures.

And while we did have fun with our friends last night, I still feel bad that her first holiday was nothing special.
