Halloween was always a fun time at our house growing up. My mom always made Lindsay and I a special dinner. It was always something fun like french dip sandwiches or sloppy joes. I will never forget the pumpkin brownie she always made, carving our yearly jack-o-lantern or going to Granny Gin's for carmel apples after trick-or-treating all night. We never did anything spooky or scary, just good fall fun.
As a parent I want this for Will. So, this past weekend, Mike and I got to have good fall fun with Will for the first time. He was 6 weeks old last year, and way too small, but this year he was just the right size! Friday night we carved our pumpkin. I thought Will would have loved to touch all the gooey pumpkin stuff, but he wanted nothing to do with it! He just want to squat beside me and watch what I was doing!
Saturday night, we went out trick or treating, its been a long time since I have done that! Will got a motorcycle for his birthday that he loves, so I decided to use it for part of his costume. I thought it would be perfect for him to be a biker. We had everything: the jacket, the doo-rag, the boots, and the motorcycle. It was going to be the perfect night. But then it rained and it was cold and Will wanted nothing to do with his motorcycle. He wanted to walk, but once he realized how cold it was, he wanted to be carried. He could have cared less about getting the candy. He had more fun once we got home dumping the candy out of his bucket and putting it back in. He would do this until he heard our doorbell ring. He liked going with us to answer the door for the trick-or-treaters. He didn't, however, like the kids who were dressed up in scary costumes. When he saw one, he would leave me at the door and run back to the living room!
Alright, enough talking, here are some pictures of our tough little biker! Your welcome Aunt Linny!
