Having fun as the Ingalls

This weekend the Teagues became the Ingalls (Pa, Ma, Laura and baby Carrie). My mom bought Annie her bonnet several months ago at the Mast General Store in downtown Knoxville and Annie decided then and there she wanted to be Laura Ingalls and we all needed to dress up to complete the full family look. It really was fun! Our church did a huge outreach event on the night of the 30th complete with old-time carnival games, inflatables, hayride and of course candy! We had a great time! I got so many good pictures that night that I really only snapped a couple on the night of the 31st. The cooler night and rainy weather also kinda put a damper on the picture taking. Annie still braved the rain for a bit and did some neighborhood trick-or-treating with some neighborhood kids. She was LOVING it!
