Halloween in Review

We enjoyed a quiet and fun Halloween with family. Jacob definitely had the most fun that night. He had a 3 hour nap in the afternoon which meant he could stay up a bit later than usual and boy did he stay up! We started our trick-o-treating at around 7pm, and we're out for about an hour. We hit up about 4 blocks, and while that may sound like a lot, it was a very sad Halloween. A lot of the houses around our area did not give out candy, and our haul was very disappointing. But Jacob didn't know the difference. He rode along in his wagon waiting for each stop. He loved it! But I'm not surprised. His favorite thing to do is be outside! After collecting candy, we hung out at my sister's house while they gave out candy, and Jacob got to enjoy some of his candy. And we got to enjoy his sugar rush. Yup, Jacob was hyperrr. He had just a few pieces of candy, but they sent him over the edge. He was walking up and down the sidewalk blabbing for a good 45 minutes! Until the rush just stopped, and he was done for the night. My little lion was out by 9pm! But he kept us laughing.

Hanging around Halloween afternoon...




Ready to go in his costume (Oh, and this little lion wouldn't be complete without whiskers)...










My nephew in his Red Death (from Phantom of the Opera) costume he was so proud of...


All the kiddies...
