Halloween 2010

Happy Halloween! It was a beautiful Fall weekend, and we all enjoyed ourselves. This Halloween actually had some "firsts." It was the 1st Halloween where Jacob was able to go trick or treating!!! It was also the 1st Halloween where Jacob could say "Trick or Treat!" It was so cool to see our baby be such a big boy on such a fun Holiday! He LOVED every minute of it. Saturday we kicked off the Holiday with the annual Halloween Party we always enjoy at the Gormsen Home. (Only a couple years ago, all of us adults celebrated with our own costumes, now it really is all about the kids) It was so fun (as it is every year) to see Jacob and all of his friends dress up. Jacob was Mickey Mouse this year, and DID NOT want to take his costume off at the end of the night! Other fun costumes his friends wore: a Transformer, an ice-cream sundae, Minnie Mouse (his girlfriend, Adriana), a baby cow, a fairy, Strawberry Shortcake, 2 Little Piggies, a tiger...just to name a few. We celebrated with lots of treats, good friends, and a late night with a little boy who was happy to continue partying. Once we were in the car he was asleep in 2.2! What can I say!? He kind of takes after his parents...he knows how to party! (HAHA-we used to) On Sunday (Halloween), Jacob and Daddy went trick or treating through the neighborhood, and Jake also enjoyed handing candy out to kids when they got home. He had more candy than one needs in a week, he is all "sugared out"...and enjoyed every second of it.Most of the kids~ Look at all of them!
