Halloween

We have been so super busy and as a result I am very behind on posts. I could not let this one slip by though...We had a great Halloween this year and Ben quickly caught on. We gave him three choices of costumes (Cowboy, Fireman or Curious George) and he picked Fireman. Since my mom always made our costumes, and I have no doubt that Kathie made Nate's, I decided to give it a whirl. I think it turned out great, and Ben loved it! When we showed him what he looked like in the mirror he said "Oh, i look soooo good".

We had Kevin Perry's birthday party during the day, and then Nonni and Pop came in the evening to go trick-or-treating. It took about two houses, but Ben caught on quickly and began running to houses and shoveling candy into his basket while Nate and I chatted with neighbors. He also got his first candy bar, which he obviously loved. It was great fun and I am sure will remember exactly what to do for next year!
