The Podunk Chronicles: Halloween 2008

Sunday, November 02, 2008

Sorry for the large post but as I mentioned in my earlier post, Halloween is my new favorite holiday. Ike was a dragon and he loved his costume! We started by meeting our friends for a trick or treat around the shops in town which was very popular this year as it is perfect for the little ones. It was hard to believe that last year Ike was riding around in the same car because he didn't walk yet! We then buckled our dragon into the carseat and went to Kyle & Bings for Ike's first trick or treat (& cocktail for Mom & Dad) and he loved it except he preferred not to put the candy in the pumpkin. Then we went to Harcourt's Aunt's house, the Stockmann's and ended at the Smith's for a driveway campfire! Ike's favorite candy was the "pop pop" aka tootsie pop but he also enjoyed a Butterfinger and said "yum". (note: with no close neighbors we don't get any trick or treaters at our house). We had a great time taking Ike around and he stayed in costume until the bitter end and cried when we took it off at home so it now resides in the toy closet for future fun. We are already looking forward to next year! More pics here.
