Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween and Happy Birthday for me! My Mom and Dad knew Eric was going to be out of town a lot this month and miss Halloween so for my birthday they bought a plane ticket for Weston and I to come spend the weekend with them! Thanks!!!

Weston LOVED Halloween so much more than I expected. For some reason, he really like the movie Elf so we decided to make him Buddy the Elf for Halloween. My mom made his costume and he was ADORABLE:)

Weston was exhausted from traveling the night of Trunk or Treat so he had a lot of fun mixed with a lot of tears...



But Halloween night we went Trick or Treating and he loved every second. He just ran and ran and ran. Then when we'd get up to the house and when the owners would open the door, he'd just walk in like he owned the place. It took about three houses before he figured out we weren't staying at each house :) To get him to stop running and get through the houses a little quicker we told him to hold Lucy's hand (and he loves holding hands so he didn't have a problem with this). They were adorable. He didn't care too much about the candy until we got to the house passing out dum dums. Then nothing else mattered so we headed back to grandma's, dumped out his bag, and he picked out all the suckers.



The Trick or Treaters...


Suckers, Suckers, and more Suckers!



Going for two at a time!

A little help cleaning up :)


Cute stories of the night-

Weston ran so much that twice he ran over to me saying, "Mom, Buddy Elf pants fall down." Sure enough...his tights were around his knees:)

On the way home we were walking in front of Lucy and her mom. Lucy says, "Mom, where's Weston?" She tells her that he's up with his mom. She then jumps off the curb, hugging her mom's arm, and says " I LOVE HIM!" It was pretty cute!
