So, has the suspense been killing you? I was a bumble bee for Halloween this year. It was a lot of fun--though I wasn't allowed to have any candy yet. Something to look forward to I guess.
We started off by visiting Uncle Paul, Aunt Susanne, Arin, Sydney, Obi and Eli at their church where they were giving out candy at the "Trunk n Treat." Holy cow, there were a ton of cars and a ton of people. The Kurtzes were--can you guess?--Dr. Seuss characters. They looked pretty amazing! We walked right by Thing 1 and Thing 2 and didn't even recognize Sydney and Arin. We only stayed for a few minutes because we had to go to our church to help with the Fall Festival.
Well, Mommy went crazy with the bee theme and Daddy graciously went along with it. Check out our Halloween family photo below.
In case you need help figuring out what we all were--I was the bumble bee, Mommy was the Queen Bee and Daddy was our hive! And yes Mommy made the hive and the queen bee costumes. (Don't tell her, but you can tell!) All the outfits together put us back a whole $1.25 thanks for stuff we had around the house. It was fun to be a bee family! Now the pressure is on for next year!
At the end of the day, I was soooo beed out. I barely fit into the car seat with my bumble bee outfit on, but once I was snug as a bug in a rug I was out like a light!
No this isn't a Halloween costume, this is an event at my Daddy's store. They had Skippyjon Jones visit the store, Halloween morning, for a book reading and signing. Skippyjon had the biggest ears I've ever seen in my life. He also thinks he's a dog. I thought Pippi and Delala needed some counseling--but this cat really needs some serious help! I had fun--we even had a little Skippyjon Jones parade. I hope that I can go to Daddy's store again when they have other visitors.
Not really much new since the last time I wrote. One thing I forgot to mention last time though is that for the first time, I was leaving work with Daddy and we were walking to the car. We passed this college kid and he asked Daddy how old his grandson was. Daddy laughed and said I was his son. Good thing this happened to Daddy and not Mommy. She might have slugged the poor guy!
Well, Halloween 2009 is history (hey, I already have a history!!). I'm looking forward to next year when maybe I can even eat a little candy--we'll see. Hope everyone enjoyed my photos.
Love to all!
