Halloween!

We had a nice little Halloween. We had a very eventful day the day before Halloween. Jack got to go to his daycare/preschool Halloween party! Here is our cute little cow saying, "Moo!" instead of cheese! :)

Then he got to come and show off his costume at Mommy and Daddy's work. Here he is at Mommy's work.
After those stops, and an attempt at a nap, Jack and I went to Old Navy and bought some Halloween clothes on clearance, then we headed down town to do a little trick or treating on main street at the local businesses. That night we got to go up to a Meet and Treat with the MSU athletes, and then in between volleyball games, Jack was in a costume parade with Champ, the mascot, around the gym. I am so sad I forgot the camera because he looked so cute out there in his cow costume happily chasing and following Champ!
On Halloween day we prepared for the ward Trunk or Treat and to have a few friends over after. Jack loved the Trunk or Treat! Here is Jack and one of his best buds, Batman aka Jacob.

Jack going around Trunk or Treating...He did a very good job at saying "Trick or Treat" and "Thank you."

Jack, Daddy, and Jack's balloons. Jack's favorite things he got for Halloween: a balloon at preschool and a balloon at the trunk or treat... :)

Mommy and Jack!
After the Trunk or Treat we had some of our good friends over for some visiting and more healthy food. It is crazy how good veggies taste after eating too much candy and cup cakes!
Here is Jack the next day enjoying some left over olives! :)

Jack had so much fun having friends over Halloween night and enjoyed a little too much candy and cookies, but the kid still couldn't get enough. Check out that innocent look he has as he tries to sneak another cookie before bedtime!

So he just decided to help himself to one. Since Halloween, we have caught him in the act of pushing a chair towards candy or cookies many, many times.... :)

All in all it was a pretty fun Halloween. Here is one last wish for a Happy Halloween from our cute little cow!

Happy Halloween! Jack, you look great in your cow costume! I can't believe you're old enough to be in preschool. How time flies. Sounds like you guys had a great time.

P.S. We are planning on being at Thanksgiving. Sounds like you are, too? See you then!

Hmm . . . the joys of toddler halloween costumes. On the one hand, they look really cute. On the other the hand, you've got something hideously embarrassing to show every girl he ever takes on a date. Win-win, right?
