Here’s a tip for you frugal dads out there, buy the Halloween costume after Halloween for the next Halloween. It only works the 1st or second years but at least you can save a little those ones. We picked up this Winnie The Pooh costume for Eva last November for $4.00 from the Disney Store. It’ll be the 1st costume for each of the kids on their 1st Halloween.
Eva had a very nice Halloween night, she met our neighbors and made a bunch of new friends including twins next door who are about 5 or 6 months older than she. That is okay she can keep up and Allison can have grown up time with our neighbor. We kept it small, we went to about 6 houses, people we knew and who wanted to see Eva in her outfit. Eva was a trooper she was so well behaved and even started to enjoy trying to pick the candy. Mommy and Daddy were happy with her picks, they were tasty.
Today Allison, Eva and I said farewell to Mimi Marcia. I’m going to have to get back to making sure things are washed and cleaned around here. Marcia was a huge help around the house and cooked us some very tasty meals while she visited. She got home safely and we are looking forward to her next visit with Grandpa Dano when Eva has her Baptism. We are working on getting the word out for that right now.
Today was Halloween and Eva started the day in a very very cute outfit. And she had a cute little costume that we got from Derek and Michelle. Our cute little pumpkin. Here are a few pictures of that first outfit that we got from my cousin Jen.
Eva was a bit cranky later tonight but she was excellent when we went for lunch at Fortune House. The folks there were so nice and they were very excited to see us at the restaurant. While we were there we saw this on a car parked in front of us.
The trick or treaters were pretty light tonight but Eva was out in her pumpkin costume.
Our neighbor dresses up each Halloween, sits on his porch silent as anything and waits till kids come up to take candy out of the bowl. And as they put their hands in the bowl they are treated to a little fright. He “comes alive” and freaks them out. Many kids have seen it before but he gets better and better each day.
An awesome pirate zombie costume for sure. Happy Halloween Everyone.
