Happy Halloween 2010

We had such a good time on Halloween.  We went over to Grandma and Grandpa's for chili dogs before Trick or Treating.  (We go to all of 3 houses, so we have to have fuel, ya know!)

Grandma Jodi bought Josh a good bucket.  It had just his kind of candy in it: small snack bags of plain M&Ms and Smarties.  It also had some goodies for the parents.  And Grandma said she threw in an outfit or two and a pumpkin book just so it didn't look like he was spoiled!  Yeah.  Like anyone would ever think that!

Zoey was kinda interested in it too.  However, Josh was NOT in the sharing mood.

He talked Grandma into a few Smarties before dinner.

And she found a neon glow-in-the-dark wand. 

Then it was time to fuel up before the big event.  He ate blackberries, raspberries, and a cracker or two.  The boy loves fruit!  I need to start growing a blueberry bush, a blackberry bush, whatever raspberries come on, an apple tree, etc.  I need a farm.

Then it was time to get dressed.  Originally, Josh was going to be Charlie Brown.  I had even special ordered a yellow shirt just like Charlie's.  But...Chad didn't like that.  So, luckily mom had bought some costumes on clearance last year and one might fit....a white bunny. 

It did!  He was the cutest bunny and tolerated the costume surprisingly well!

Mom even got some of her eyeliner and drew on whiskers and took some blush or lipstick and made a pink nose.  He looked adorable!



Here Josh is knocking on the door at Grandma Evie's and Grandpa Hoyt's. 

And of course, Grandma and Grandpa had a goodie bag for him.  More Smarties and some cute clothes from when they were in Red River last week. 

And we had to stop and read a book. 

Then we went to Chad's lieutenant's house.  He and his wife are so kind to us.  (And Josh loves to see Peaches, their dog.)  But to our surprise and Josh's luck, there were 3 big dogs when we got there!  Josh was in hog heaven.   

Halloween was busy, but fun!
