Halloween 2009

Everyone has prob. been wondering why we haven't posted any Halloween costume pictures yet... Well that would be because Brandon HATES to "dress up". He got a Diego vest last Christmas, i have yet to see him put it on. When i tried putting him in the Mickey Halloween costume a month ago he was hysterical, well i thought it must be the costume...

not so lucky.

This is Brandon in his costume Thursday night...

And that is kenns hand on the right trying to bribe with candy... Kenn got this great idea to use my furry leather jacket and say that he was a lion too, and he pretended to trick or treat with me and i'd give him candy. Eventually B let kenn hold him while he did this. So we had a little hope. Friday they had a big party at school and I was told he did wear the body part of the costume for the costume parade.

Halloween morning we went with Aunt Gail to Disney On Ice. Brandon was a little afraid but sat through it and watched everything. During the 2nd half he really got into it dancing on daddy's lap. After it was done he kept asking for to "play again". He talked about seeing Mickey and snow all weekend long. We had a great time :) We went home took naps and then ate dinner and got ready to go out Trick Or Treating... we got the same reaction to the costume.

So we "compromised" on the outfit with no hat, i wore my jacket and we got him outside by telling him he could pull his wagon...

We started going to houses, and i would give him a piece of M&M after every house, and after a few houses he became less shy (and wanting more candy) and so he started to say "trick or treat"and "roar"

Brandon eating his candy.

He after a little bit he let us pull him in the wagon

Chocolate Mouth!

We got home after 1hr 45mins (our whole street) took a bath, watched some TV and was in bed by 9pm. A couple times that night after we were home he would turn to me and ask "trick or treat" and give me a sly smile asking me for more candy.



And I'm sure you all are excited to hear what we did in our office competition this year (last year we did the election) This year we did famous dead people and came in second place.
