Happy Halloween!!




I hope everyone had a happy and safe Halloween. We had a great day here. In the morning, Ryan and I joined our moms group friends for a little parade at one of the local nursing homes. We brought some smiles to the faces of the nice ladies there. After we got home, we finally carved our pumpkin. Ryan helped to scrape out the insides and I carved it during his nap. He really enjoyed it. Then after Daddy got home and we had dinner, we all dressed up to go out. We left our candy on the porch for the 3 or 4 people who would venture all the way down to our house, got into the wagon and off we went. I think it was a total of about 20 houses - which was perfect for us. Unfortunately, everyone over bought and were very glad to give away 5 pieces of candy per child. So we have most of ours left (and I only bought 2 bags) and a ton more. Ryan had a great time. He especially enjoyed pulling the empty wagon and ringing the doorbell. He didn't say thank you (of course he can't say those words yet) but he waved bye to everyone! Overall a great night.



Before Halloween came, I had two outfits for Ryan. We tried them both on, but the fireman costume - while so cute - was too big and cheap. It would never have lasted until next year, but Ryan loved the hat, so we had to return it. But here is a picture I took while trying it on. And another picture with mom's witch hat! Now we're off to shop the after Halloween sales.
