trick or treat!

Aaron wore this skeleton sweat suit most of the day, Friday. He kept telling me he was a spider and I would answer, "No, you're a skeleton." And he would point at himself and say, "Pider!" And this went on and on until he covered his ears with his hands---whatever! be a spider then!
Okay, I'm warning you now--this is a LONG post with lots of commentary and pictures. You might want to get a drink or a snack or something!
Aaron with Danny's pumpkin from when he was little. Brian's mom made it for Danny and Aaron took it trick or treating.

We went trick or treating at Monica's with our friend Rose. Here's Matthew--he's a bloody something or other! Monica--sorry you didn't make the blog--the only picture I had of you and Matthew--you were sticking out your tongue! Not sure what that was all about but there's always next year!

Rose and Tristen.


the neighborhood boys we went with...


...and the star of the show---Tigger!


You know my son and hats--he found Matthew's helmet and wasn't giving it up. I decided-- not a battle worth fighting (in front of all Monica's neighbors!)


The only time Aaron was in the stroller! Monica used it to push around our cameras and the extra candy!


Tigger running after the boys--he had to be right up in the middle of it! And they were good sports about the whole thing!



His first house...you like the helmet instead of the cute pumpkin basket?? Me too!



After each house, he would put the helmet down, take the candy out, pretend to eat a piece, then give me the candy--one by one--saying, "thank you." This went on all night--ask Monica. It was the funniest thing!



"This is fun!"




"Whew! I'm getting tired!"



Mike and Mike passing out candy. The dancing Mike in blue is Monica's and the other Mike is Rose's. The picture is all blurry because THEY REALLY WERE DANCING!!


YES!! Danny WAS there and just look at him enjoying all the festivities!



the V.I.P. after-party!


Aaron all comfy in his jammies or "A-jays" playing peek-a-boo on the stairs with Tristen.
What a night--we had a blast!
