We visited the all the witches at Gardner Village with the boy's cousins:
We played at the local pumpkin patch, including a maze made just for the little ones:
And finally, Halloween night. Our little pirate had a great time!
We dressed him up as a bat for Halloween. He did NOT enjoy his costume:
We finally figured out that he didn't like the neck strap on his hat, so the rest of the night he was his usual happy self. Here he is with his cousins; Caden (the leopard) and Ciara (the witch ... I wore that exact costume when I was her age):
We carved pumpkins the night before Halloween. BSC's is the skull in the corner, mine is the scared face next to Nathan, and Nathan's is (appropriately) the little bat in front.
Some of the worst costumes of the night:
1. A rather LARGE man dressed as a vending machine.
2. An old woman dressed as ... an old woman. Curlers, mumu, bad makeup and all. Wait, maybe it wasn't a costume.
3. Teenage boys dressed as "hunters" in jeans and hoodies.
4. Teenage girls dressed in whatever is the most revealing outfit they can find.
