Halloween in Coatesville

One of our fellow nursery workers Jill, lives in a very small town about 40 minutes west-ish of us called Coatesville. For the past few weeks, she has been telling us about all the fun things they do to celebrate Halloween- such as free cinnamon rolls from her cafe, popcorn balls and candy from other merchants, and even a story time. Since we had some nasty weather yesterday (Halloween), all of the festivities were moved to tonight. So, we joined our good friends the Toney's and headed out to Coatesville to support Jill and the town she loves so much!
Our first stop was Jill's cafe! Garrett loved his Halloween brownie!
Tori liked her brownie too, but did not want to smile for a picture!!!
Jared and I totally enjoyed some homemade cinnamon rolls while Garrett kept handing Halloween finger puppets to Daddy!
Yeah- we finally got a smile! Thanks for the fun Halloween bags, Jill!
Garrett thought it was even better when Daddy put all the finger puppets on his fingers!
This storefront provided the perfect setting for a fabulous Halloween photo! Tonight we had Peter Pan (Garrett), Toadette (Tori), Thor (Benson), and Dora (Anna) with us!!!
My favorite part of the evening- story time at the Red Horse Livery! A real live witch read us the Headless Horseman (kid style)- and she did a fabulous job!
Tori and Benson trying to decide which candy to pick!
Since there were only a few kids present, we got to bring home lots of candy!!!
Daddy and Garrett stayed nice and cozy in their blanket!
Tori was so excited that she got to pick out the winning raffle ticket!
Just for fun, I tried to get one last good Halloween costume picture- not too shabby!
Hurrah for such a wonderful evening with some genuinely nice people! I love little towns- you can be sure we will be visiting Coatesville again!!!
