Halloween with the Horses

This Halloween I decided it would be really fun to throw a party at the barn. The kids signed up for horses and I gave them free rein to dress them up however they wanted. I have been planning this Halloween party since August, so it was really fun to finally have it all come together. We did a costume contest and parade, horseback riding games, bobbing for apples, pumpkin decorating and of course a bunch of Halloween candy and treats were involved.

These kids must be in LOVE with you! I am jealous that I didn't get to attend this - we used to have pony dress-up days at camp and they were always a lot of fun. I'm glad it went off so well, everyone looks like they had a blast!

Absolutely a wonderful event for you and the kids. My favorite is the blue dress atop the unicorn. All so creative. What a perfect outlet for all that amazing stuff you have in your heart and head to share! Glad it was such a success.
