All Hallow's Eve and other silly stuff

So HT's favorite holiday has come and gone. Halloween. The Celts called it Samhain. As Mrs HT said so snappily posted it is also a birthday. So the Mrs and I selected a costume for the wee man this year. We chose a lion. He is a big fan of lions. he likes to roar when ever he hears the word.

Simple right?

Hardly. The costume comes in the mail we wash it to avoid the problem we had last Halloween with an allergic reaction. We put on the bottom half, and he is roaring like a champ. We try and put the mane portion of the costume on and well, we got vetoed in no uncertain terms.


SO. We took a couple of pictures as fast as we could and here are the results.


As you can see not the happiest of trick or treaters
So we didnt make him wear it for more that these pictures.
Evening approached and we had done some pre-planning in coordination with KM to make sure that when he got treats that wouldn't make him sick

So next door he went and experienced Halloween for the first time

Getting phat lewt
Running around

sitting and enjoying the evening and watching the older kids come to the house

On All Saints day we cleaned up the yard and had a leaf pile. Leaf piles one of the best things about this time of the year.

Someone got chucked in to it. :)


We also had a party to go to. Mrs. HT's friend KT number 1 was celebrating a birthday off cycle for a variety of reasons. But it was a costume party and a good time was had by all.

Unfortunately someone forgot their camera. Luckily there was a professional. To see more from this party click here.

More later.. Soccer Playoffs and the recapture of youth...
