Our 1st Halloween with Will!

The night before Halloween, Mike and I carved pumpkins. This is Mike's 2nd pumpkin to carve so it was fun to watch him concentrate. My pumpkin was traditional, while Mike's was more free-form! Will slept away the whole time. He could care less at his age. Next year will be a hoot!














Will was dressed as a little Peapod. I purchased this bib and hat set back in the spring in the baby section of Pottery Barn. I put him in a green onesie and pants and called it a costume. He looked so cute in his hat. He almost looked like Robin Hood. My look was more thrown together. Michelle said she thought it was cute when mommas dressed up, too. So, I put in pigtails and put lipstick on my cheeks and there you have it. It's open to interpretation! Will kept looking at me strangely. It's like he was saying, what's wrong with my mommy!

This is a picture of Will with our sweet neighbors Tammie and her son, Zac. He was dressed as a dinosaur! Tommie and Tammie have 3 wonderful children, Zac, Kenzie and Kaitlin. They are such a blessing to us!

Will is a pooped peapod! Out like a light.

This is a picture of our home for the evening. It wasn't fancy, but it looked beautiful. We put out our pumpkins and had lumineries light the way to the front door.

These were a few of the pumpkin cookies I made that were left. They were quite popular with the guys. It was such a fun evening. We can't wait until next year when Will can really begin to enjoy it.

Oh Will is absolutely the cutest little Peapod I have ever seen! What a doll baby! And girl do you think those pumpkin cookies could make it in one piece all the way to Germany? I can almost taste those from here. Love ya -V
