eGNOMEously FUN!

We went to Boo at the Zoo & had a blast. Anderson is just so much fun & I LOVE him as a gnome. My friend, Elizabeth, made him a gnome hat & beard (she is just an expert at things like that...) & we put it with a flannel shirt & little suspenders to create the cutest gnome ever! He was pretty good at keeping it on for about 5 seconds. But, it was the cutest 5 seconds I've ever seen.

The kid loves some pumpkins and pointed out every one that we saw. There were maybe 300. This was my favorite-a one eyed pumpkin!
Cute little face. I figured the monkey hat served as a sort of costume, as well.
A few more gnome shots. He figured out what to do with his bag very quickly & went up to each booth saying, "trick or treat" and refused to let anyone else carry his bag. He kept saying, "Aesson's bag!"
The parents. Love. Leaving you with a few more gnome pics...

  6. This is so dang cute! He looks like a little serious gnome! I love it! Great idea! I always made Thomas' costumes too. Until he got too "cool" then it was whatever HE wanted to dress up as....as if! Cherish these times always!
    Love to you all,
