pumpkins, dragons & candy!

I know that you were expecting a pirate, but how stinkin cute is this dragon?? Honestly, I had the pirate outift also, but I found this one in the attic that I bought last year for $3 & as soon as I put it on I fell in love with the tail & the baby in it. We had SO much fun! I love, love Halloween. I think there is nothing better than people just handing out candy! It really is one of the best things about America. I have always said that I would love to be friends with the person who thought up trick or treating. You know he has to be a fun guy.
I always remember trick or treating at my grandma's, so Anderson had to see his Noni, Bop & GG on the big day!

The Brimers came over to trick or treat & it was SO fun! Jack was a pepper (a PEPPER JACK!!) & looked precious, as usual. I loved the fact that it fit like a swaddle. (I LOVE YOU SWADDLE!)We were really obsessed with the fact that they were holding hands like best friends!




Stated by Brandon as we were walking, "My goal is to eat all of Anderson's candy before we get home." He did a pretty good job on it, but they did share a package of goldfish when we got home. It was one of the only things he could actually eat. Oh, and one of our neighbors gave him a box of mum-mums!
How fun is our pumpkin?? Brandon has pretty talented carving skills & GG found this "pirate bling", which is very fitting for us.

Someone got into the candy a little early. I just realized he is eating a fortune cookie. Not sure where that came from. Weird.

A trip to Sams getting ready for the big day! I just like this outfit from Aunt Ems!

  4. One of those photos looks like he's walking! I was frantic to read the post thinking that is what you were going to talk about. I swear, any day he will be running! The dragon costume was a must! He can be a pirate next year when he walking, it was definitely be cuter then!

  5. My favorites are the two where he looks like he's about to attack a small Japanese city - so flippin' adorable!
