Neighborhood Halloween Party (10/2010)
First of all, we do not like to celebrate the “evil” aspects of Halloween. Of course there are those that will argue that ANY aspect of the day is EVIL. Well, I love costumes and enjoy trick-or-treating (cuz I get some of the candy!). No really. I have such fond memories of doing this as a child that I want my kids to remember this too. Times are different and we have modified where we go and what we do. Our neighborhood hosts a party for the residents and it is so great to go!
My son's glow-in-the-dark bones shirt (yes we closed the door with the lights off to test)
Getting my fireman ready
Such a handsome fireman (who was rather apprehensive about the hat)
Abel's turn!
Getting my puppy ready
My sweet little boy/dog - so adorable!
Eating his ear...if you only knew the significance of this!
Cutie pie! He is only 5 months and COMPLETELY fills a 12-18 month costume!
New hat for the fireman
Walking to the party
Very serious and not quite sure what to make of any of it
Ah, another sucker...imagine that
The love of my life
Checking out the "School Bus"
Very happy to be out of the costume
Finally gave it up
Ham almost gave it up too!
This was so much fun and it was neat to have a place to go close to home for the kids.
