Practicing for Santa

We had a charity carnival at work last Friday and Santa made a special appearance so I picked Jack up to spend a little one-on-one time with me and of course we stopped to see the big guy.  I was so curious to see what he was going to tell him he wanted because he's been putting stickers all over every toy catalog that "the mailman brings him".  So...he said he wanted "treats"???  I think that Halloween was still top of his mind.  LOL  Santa did give him a cute little stuffed dinosaur that Jack named "Stinky".  Never a dull moment!

Big Boy Haircuts!

No one has ever cut our boys hair but mommy.  They wanted to tag along while daddy got his done and then decided they were brave enough to try it too!

 Jack was silent and VERY serious.

A couple of times he would look at me and ask if he was doing a good job...so cute..

 HE DID IT!!! And he looks AWESOME!

NEXT.......................!!!!  Drew was fine because he had what else...a sucker!!!  That is until, he got hair on the sucker, cue the water works.  He was so funny.



Sucker #3 for the day, he did it!  What a big boy!!!

 God forbid they both look at the camera at the same time!  School pictures next week should be interesting!

 Goofballs!



Happy Halloween!!!

Trick-Or-Treat for our neighborhood is always the Sunday before Halloween.  It took us 4 years of living here to figure that trend out!  It was cold but at least it didn't rain like last year.

Getting ready to head out with mommy.



 

 First stop...daddy!

About 7 houses in, Drew was living and dying for this tootsie pop.  He was done trick-or-treating and just wanted to sit in the wagon and see how many licks it took to get to the center. I think he knows just how many it took too, but he won't tell me!

The last house...Jack hit almost every house in our neighborhood and was done!

While we carved pumpkins that morning, Jack worked on his first sculpture installation on our cabinets.

Jack was really proud of our pumpkins!

 My Scooby Doo pumpkin.

Dan's Boba Fett pumpkin.

Boo @ The Zoo

We took the boys to trick-or treat at the zoo and this is how they started the festivities in the car on the way there.

 Drew, of course, started the silliness.

Jack, of course, followed.

Drew "Yoda" taking it all in.

 Jack "Obi-Wan Kenobi" was a silly but very cool Jedi.

Ha!

 Drew was a sport and even though it was pretty chilly he walked around to all the stops.

 Jack wanted his picture taken here with "that crazy guy" in the background.

Drew starting his new love affair with the sucker.  We hit all the stops and then walked through the "spooky" wolf woods and ended the evening by riding the train, always a big hit!
