Halloween 2011

 This year Lincoln was Bamm-Bamm for Halloween.  I figured it would be one of the last years that I had total control over what he wears so I took advantage of it.  Also, I needed something that did not require a hat because if you ask Lincoln, all hats have a deadly venom in them and should never, ever be worn for longer than .25 seconds or else you could die.  Well, he hasn't said it in those words, but if you've seen his reaction to hats, you would know that is what he is thinking.

So I found a costume online but it was sorta lame, and it cost 30$.  So I decided to make my own... I think it turned out pretty cute and only cost about 7$ total.  I love these pictures of him, the light is good and he's still pre-sugar rush.  Our church does in-neighborhood get togethers instead of at the church, since Halloween is one time of year that people come out of their house and meet their neighbors.  They really did it up right!  

 They even set up a photo spot so people could get their kids picture taken, it had lighting and everything!  I tried to get one of Linc and Jay but Linc wouldn't put his legs down since the hay is pointy and as you can see below, Jay was very, very into it.

 One of Linc's friends from our Moms club came with his Mom and Dad, and Lincoln was excited to have a friend there.  Here they are watching putt-putt.

 Here is where stuff gets crazy.  By crazy, I mean 2 year old sneaky-sugar-crazy.  So I didn't realize that Linc was drinking a Capri Sun in this picture...

 Then he and Dad had hot-dogs...

 Then Sneaky-Linc-y asked Mommy for a juice.  WHAT!?!? and dumb ol Mommy fell for it.  So this picture is of him sucking down his second juice right before trick or treating time started.... What a stinker!

 Here is the sugar kicking in.  Notice the crazed look in his eye, and his friends face which says, "this guy is CRAY-CRAY!"

 So then it was time to strike out on our candy hunt.  I wasn't sure that Lincoln would get it but realized quickly that I did not give that kid enough credit.  He walked up to the first door and rang the bell.  When the nice lady opened the door he walked right in and said "Trick or Treat!" then stood there while she gave him candy.  And stood there.  And stood there.  Finally she gave him some more so he would leave.  Then he said "Thank Youuuu!" before turning around and looking and Jay and I and screaming, "NEXT HOUSE!!!" 

We got done and he got to have a sample out of his bag.  Jay and I ate most of the Chocolate candy, we must admit because we know next year that probably wont fly.

A great time was had by all...

Next post is Dewberry Farms... Its become a yearly tradition for us and is lots of fun.
