First Halloween!

Parker brought Jackson up to campus because the girls in my class wanted to see his costume. They pretty much smothered him... but he likes it.

Then, that afternoon, we went downtown to trick or treat. The city blocks off a few of the main streets and all of the businesses give out candy.
It's kind of nice for the younger kids who are used to an earlier bedtime because you can go downtown early, while it's still light outside, then be home for other trick or treaters.

Halloween (continued)...

After trick or treating downtown, we stopped at our friends' house to see their new baby, Greg (only a couple of days old). We took pictures together of the boys' first Halloween.
Then, we went to the church. Families had signed up to decorate rooms. It was fun to go door-to-door (from classroom to classroom) and see how each one was decorated. It was also nice to be indoors because it was already freezing outside and we could let Jackson go ahead of us without worrying.

He was pretty darn cute in his little puppy costume. I thought this was an appropriate choice, since he LOVES puppies - live ones and stuffed. I think he had a great Halloween.
