A Slice of Halloween

This year Halloween was a lot of fun because Aaron had so much fun and understood more of it.  In the beginning I was not sure how he would take to a costume, he is kind of finicky about "new" clothes.  So we bought the costume early and had to have may practice runs.  He became obsessed with the Toy Story movies leading up to Halloween so we went with a character he knew in hopes of that helping ease the blow.  Mommy could not decide between Buzz and Woody so we bought both.

 

 

Our first opportunity to wear costumes came when we went to the Zoo for Zoo Boo.  We met up with some friends and had a great day wandering around observing the animals.

 That same weekend we tried to go to the pumpkin patch, which we have done for two years, and get some pictures of the boys.  Well that plan was quickly overridden by the fall festival they were also having.

 

 The next day we went to the Fall Festival at Aaron's school, this was a planned trip.  This is where he had his first chance to trick or treat and he really liked it.  Grandma came with us and we had lots of fun.

 

And we finished up the season with trick or treating on Halloween night.  We went to my mom's neighborhood and hit up a handful of houses.  My Aunt was in town and came with us.

 

It is almost time...

It is almost time to head back to life as a working mom :(.  There are so many things I am going to miss about being home every day with my babies.  I will miss our lazy mornings watching cartoons in "mommy daddy bed".

I am going to miss all of the snuggle time with my sweet pea.
