Halloween 2014

Some things truly get better with age and I think celebrating holidays with kiddos is one of them.  This year, at 4 years old, Corbin was SO excited about Halloween.  He understood what was going to happen, he participated in picking out a costume he wanted, and he anxiously watched the calendar for October 31st to arrive.

When the big day arrived we started our Halloween celebrations by having lunch with some of our favorite ladies: Aunt Kati, GG, and Grandma Gleason.  Corbin lunched at Chili’s in costume…he had a great time.

Then we made our first trick or treat stop at Grandma and Grandpa Miller’s house.  It was an afternoon warm up run before the big nightWinking smile

That night we got together with our neighbors for soup and then headed out to get some candy.  But, it was super cold this Halloween, so we stayed out for awhile, but the girls got cold.

Corbin was so cute because he said he was our dinosaur and would protect us.  He also never got cold.  That kid is a heater.  I would hold his hand just to warm up mine!

After we got home Corbin dug into his candy and warmed up (although he didn’t need warming up) with hot chocolate. 

After he finished his treats he changed out of costume and waited at the door so he could hand out candy to others.

Lucky Corbin got to extend his Halloween one more day.  Grandma Tammy and Grandpa stopped by Saturday and Corbin showed off his costume and got some treats from them as well.

And to add to the excitement of Halloween Corbin finished his puzzle.  He was super proud of himself.  Chris and I did participate in putting this puzzle together but a great portion was done by Corbin.  We are now starting a 500 piece puzzle…we are entering the “this could be challenging for momma” rangeWinking smile

And finally, we capped off the exciting weekend with wearing new pajamas.  Seriously, he was pretty excited about his new PJs.  Corbin kept asking me if they were really pajamas because they are so different then what he’s worn before. He looks like such a little man…love them!
