Halloween 2008

Cute Spider torturing his first prey - Elmo!

Halloween 2008 is actually Joshua's 2nd Halloween. Last year, Joshua was 6 weeks old at Halloween. His Halloween consisted of putting on his halloween costume for 5 minutes of pictures, and the the rest of the day was spent eating, sleeping, and pooping. (The typical day of a newborn). This year, Halloween was a lot more eventful. In the morning, Joshua had a halloween party at his music class. After class, a lot of the people in the class went to lunch together with our kids in costume. Then, it was back to the house for a nap to gear up for the evening festivities. Around 5pm, our new friend in the neighborhood came over. She has a daughter a few months younger than Joshua. What was really funny was that she had the same exact costume as Joshua, and we didn't even know it when we picked them out. Around 5:30pm, we walked around the neighborhood and did a little trick-or-treating. However, we really had to wait until it got dark before people would really open their doors. It seemed like some people weren't even answering their doors until 7pm. When I was a kid, we started trick-or-treating right after we got home from school. I guess times have changed. At 7:30pm, we went to a "chili" halloween party at our neighbor's house and Joshua partied until about 10pm! He was a real trooper.
