Trick-Or-Treat!

 

What a difference a year makes!

Happy Halloween! Who doesn't love this holiday!? You get to dress your kid up, show them off and get candy! Although we didn't go trick-or-treating per say, we did do the traditional pumpkin carving the night before, and then on the actual holiday, we went to the Lloyd Center in downtown Portland to walk around.

We decided to carve our pumpkins the night before with Connor this year (last year Ryan & I just carved the pumpkins). The older he gets, the more things he enjoys doing! Although he didn't quite understand what we were doing, he was super cute trying, and A+ for effort!

Helping, or making a mess LOL?

He thought the goo inside of the pumpkins was to eat...

He thought that mouth was for him : )

The finished product!

A few weeks before Halloween, we were searching the Internet for a costume for Connor to wear. We stumbled across the elephant costume and knew right away that it was the costume for him. In May of this year, Grams & Papa came to visit us and get to know Connor. One trip to Toys-R-Us and he found his best friend. He carries around an elephant where ever we go, and uses him as a pillow at night to sleep on. This costume was made for Connor!!

At Barnes & Nobles taking a break!

He was a hit : )

There was so much to look at!

Are we there yet!?
