Halloween

This year we let Fisher pick his own Halloween costume. We now realize there are risks associated with this. Your child might end up looking like a seventies shag rug that cookie monster threw up. Fisher loves carrying "cookie" around like a blankie but wearing a giant blue monster on his head was not his idea of fun.

Todd's class had a Halloween party of which the first hour and a half was for the kids. They had cupcakes with frosting piled a mile high, juice boxes, candy, pumpkin painting, face painting, goodie-bags...they really did a terrific job. Then they cleared out the kiddies by 8:30 so the "adult" costumes were safe to arrive. We didn't stick around for that part :)

Fisher had a chocolate chip cookie painted on his face. This is how he looked most of the night, not wearing the "head" of his costume.

Fisher after the party. He was soaked in sweat from running around like a little kid who had just eaten a pound of purple frosting.

Grandma & Grandpa Church came down to hang out with us and to go to the Trunk-or-Treat at our church. Fisher always has fun when they come to visit.

Before the Trunk-or-Treat started they did a little parade of the kids in their costumes...Fisher was protesting being a part of it.

This is the only shot we have of Fisher not trying to take Cookie's head off.

And for those of you who have requested pictures of Todd...here he is :) He is growing his big red beard again for those of you who remember the last time around.
