"My loves Happy Halloween!"

Just the suh-weetest lil ladybug and buzziest Buzz Lightyear around!
Gonna breeze right past the fact that Halloween was weeks ago... As I've spoken about my affinity for fall festivals before, I probably don't need to say that we dressed up multiple times for any opportunity possible over a two-week window. A quick rough-around-the-edges slideshow of the highlights (still learning the software...u can click on the icon to make it full screen):


Taking Ben around the neighborhoods was so much fun. After a couple hand-holding trial runs, he just marched right up to the front doors, said "trick or treat!", picked out his candy (very deliberately and had to be hurried along), then said "tank you!" with a smile. And after a while I had him add in "Happy Halloween!" as we said goodbye. As we were walking down the driveway of a particularly lucrative stop (full-size Snickers, woot woot!) he turned to me and said, "Mahmmy, my loves Happy Halloween."

Of course you do, buddy. I can't wait to see what he thinks about Merry Christmas this year!

So precious! I remember Hayden last year with the holidays...it makes them SO AWESOME to experience them through your child when the "get it". Amazing stuff!

Say hello to Ben and KB from their Indiana pen-pals, Hay and Brody :)

Oh, they must have made many a candy-passer-outers' night! Just cute as a bug, and a buzz.

I like your sweater shirt so much that I bought it myself before seeing these pics! Good thing the tags are still on it or we'd be Thanksgiving twinkies (it doesn't look as cute on me as it does on you anyway).

I love the new slideshow capabilities- fancy! :)
