Grrrr ... brown bear!

We had so much fun for Halloween this year. We went over to Nolan's house for trick or treating. The two boys had a blast. Nolan went as a train engineer and Jackson was the cutest brown bear ever! I had a lot of fun making Jackson's first Halloween costume - considering I didn't really have a pattern and could have really used a seam stripper. A seam stripper would have made the whole process easier ... but other then that it wasn't too bad and we think the outcome was adorable. Take a look for yourself.

Brown bear, brown bear ... what do you see?Engineer Nolan - Nolan loved his candy. The boys having fun in the wagon. In Columbus families sit outside socializing and handing out candy. Tony and I have never heard of this before but think it is a smart and safe idea. Although, I kind of miss the whole door bell ringing thing."Jackson, are you already growing facial hair?"
I love this classic wagon/stare shot of the guys.
"Grrr ... I'm scary! Hands off the candy!"
Most of you know that Jackson goes to bed pretty early (about 7ish and sometimes earlier). Although Jackson was a bit tired and clingy near the end of trick or treating it wouldn't have been Halloween with out Daddy carrying the little guy home.

So because Jackson is so spanking cute and really spanking cute in his costume, we decided to take him to the park to have fun and take a bunch of photos. Have fun with this extremely long post.

And of course fun in the leaves! I absolutely had to share these pics of Jackson in the leaves. The color is just breathtaking.

The hat with the ears will always be a hit with mom and dad! We love you Jackson.
