On Thursday night, our church had its annual Trunk-r-Treat and Chili/Soup Cook-off. The night started off on a bad note..... I purchased Jacob the most adorable puppy costume over a month ago, and for some reason decided not to take it out of the closet or try it on him until 15 min. before we had to leave the house. You can probably guess where this is going. The zipper was busted, an unfortunately it ran along the side of the costume, so I couldn't hide it. So, we showed up to the party with an adorable Jo-Jo the Clown (for the 2nd year) and a Jacob the Giant, no costume needed. The night was not a complete bust- Isabella collected lots of candy for her parents to eat, and I won for the best soup- Roasted Butternut Squash w/ Apples & Bacon. Yum!
Friday started with an early trip to Target to find my little man a new costume. Ya right!! Of course there was NOTHING left in the store, with the exception on dog costumes (meaning costumes to actually put on your dog). So, we left the store with a very cute pumpkin costume that had a hat w/ holes cut out for gigantic ears. Did you know dog costumes are pretty cheap? Only $6.99. I wonder how many years I can get away with buying these? I'll let you know in another 12 months.
At 10:30am, 6 very cute kids arrived at our house for a Halloween Party. They colored pictures, decorated cookies, ate lunch, watched a Halloween movie, and had an all-around great time.
Then at 6pm we set off to go Trick-or-Treating in our neighborhood. It was just perfect. The weather was awesome and the size of our neighborhood is really the perfect size for Trick-or-Treating. A good time was had by all, including Jacob who just loves being pulled around in his wagon.

Cute kids. It is so fun to get to see pictures of them, but I am terribly jealous that Adam has met them. Hopefully someday soon.
