Halloween!

Happy Halloween! We were at Walmart a few weeks ago and saw some absolutely cute costumes just Sammy's size. The options were a little devil, a lion, and a pumpkin. We thought that the little devil was the cutest, but thought that it might not go over well with the birth parents, because Sammy really isn't a little devil, in fact quite the opposite -- it was just a cute costume! Anyway we decided against it. The lion just looked cheap so we went with the pumpkin eventhough it seems everyone does a pumpkin for the first couple years.

At our ward halloween party, or harvest festival, we all put on our Incredible t-shirts because Sammy's pumpkin outfit is quite warm and we didn't want an ornery little squash! So the incredible onesie was an easy alternative, and it allowed Michelle and I to also "dress up" and look fun. We should have taken a picture but didn't, so you'll just have to take our word for it that we looked incredible!

So this isn't exactly halloween but it was at gardner village during the halloween season. Michelle, her mom, and a couple sisters went out to enjoy the dining and shopping.

Sammy's first halloween started with me dropping him off at grandma Droge's house for the late morning and early afternoon as I went to school. Mom had a good time with him, and took a bunch of pictures. Then we went up to visit grandma Pond for a little while for dinner and before we left we put Sam in his pumpkin costume and took some photos outside on the porch.

He was such a good sport, even though it was cold, hard, and he kept nearly falling over.

Guys, I'm gonna need a spotter here!
By the time we finally got to our house, Sammy was ready for the night to be over. We still wanted pictures of all our little pumpkins together, but Sammy refused to happily participate!
