Well well, what a wonderful October
we had!
There was plenty of time for playing outside...
But there were also lots of rainy
days where we had to
find other ways to
keep entertained....
And then there was Halloween.
I don't know about ya'll,
but I LOVE Halloween.
It might be the costumes,
it might be the candy,
it's definitely not the scary movies,
I don't know if I'll ever know
exactly why I love it so much,
but this year was about as good as
any I've ever had!
(Except for maybe the year I was a
blade of grass.
Just kidding, that one was depressing.
It was the last year I was allowed to
go trick or treating but Halloween
was on Sunday.
Hence, the not so clever
costume idea)
Anywho, we went to our ward's
Halloween party the Saturday
before Halloween.
And we had a great family costume:
PEANUTS!
Kale was the perfect Charlie Brown,
and Tyler and I are very proud
of that Snoopy head :)
My costume wasn't so obvious.
I had to stick with Tyler and Kale,
otherwise no one had a clue
who I was.
(I'm Lucy, btw)
Notice the crocodile tear?
It's because we took him
into the Spook Alley and he got
super scared.
I know I shouldn't laugh,
but I did.
We took him trunk-or-treating.
For those of you who don't know,
trunk-or-treating is when people
decorate their car trunks
and kids simply go around the parking
lot from car to car claiming their candy.
You would think they would say,
"Trunk or treat!" when they
get to each trunk, but they don't.
Kale didn't say anything; he just stared.
It was a lot of fun, especially
since so many people
showed up with really cool costumes.
On the actual day of Halloween,
I put Kale in his Charlie Brown
attire once more,
and I just wore Halloweeny stuff.
It was a rainy and cold day, so I
decided not to try and take
him trick or treating, especially since
he doesn't enjoy it yet anyway.
Sooo enthused...
He did some real good snuggles
with daddy.
And then he started getting cheesy!
This is his "I'm so cool, I lean."
He's gonna be such a
ladies man.
Oh dear.
He started to get mad because
I wouldn't let him have
the camera...
But then the binky saved the day!!!
This is his new favorite place.
Either behind the couch
or on top of the heater.
Just as long as he can see out that window,
he's good.
Trick or Treat!!!!
Then it was P.J.'s time.
He thinks he's so funny.
Little Schnickerbacher!
And that was our Halloween.
Overall, we had a great time.
We kept talking about how fun it
would have been to take him to
see all his cousins
all dressed up.
Hopefully in a couple years
we'll get to do that!
And now, to properly say goodbye
to October,
Here's a picture from our
first November outing:
