Trick or Treat

Smiley like the pumpkins

For Halloween this year, we traveled down to Mimi and Tooey's house for Trick-or-Treating. This was a bit stressful for us as Liam had refused to wear his costume up to this point. Over the past month, every time we would ask him what he wanted to be, he said a "train" but when we finally got the costume he freaked out and just downright would not wear it.

Well, Wednesday morning, we sent the costume in with him to school as they were having a Halloween parade that morning. I warned his teacher that he might not wear it, but left it anyway. Well, we picked him up and she said that he LOVED it and had a total blast. Sure enough, when it was time to put it on again that night to go out, we couldn't get it on fast enough. Liam was sooooo excited and proud of his costume and told every single person that gave him candy that he was Thomas and a choo-choo train and made the "choo choo" noise. It was so cute. He would also say while we were walking down the sidewalk that he was "puffing down the track."

Some pictures from the night:

Ready to go!

Fun display

Maybe this makes me a bit nervous...

Needless to say, Halloween this year was a hit!! Liam loved all the displays in the neighborhood and ended the night telling us that his bag was full and he needed to go back to the shed to sleep.

This week is fairly uneventful. Mimi and Tooey are coming up this weekend for Taylor's birthday, so we are looking forward to that.
