Trick or Treat

Trick or Treat was on Thursday night here from 6-8 pm. Last year Jackson was too little and slept through all the excitement, but this year, he was right in the middle of it. We dressed him up as a puppy dog and had decided to take him to just a couple of the houses near ours.

As you can see his initial reaction to the costume was one of complete disgust!


But, once we got outside he perked right up.

Here is Jackson going to the house across the street from us on his first Trick or Treat. Although Jackson has never had candy and had no idea what it was he was getting, he quickly decided that this was a lot of fun!

Jackson was having such a great time we decided to take him to all the houses on our street. Jackson and mommy off to hit some more houses.

Trick or Treat in our subdivision is great because everyone sits out on their driveways with their candy, so it's super easy for little kids to go from house to house. At couple of houses after Jackson would get his candy he grabbed himself a couple of extra pieces from the bowls and took off! Here are Jackson and Daddy heading back home. Notice Jared is now carrying the loot bag. I guess it got too heavy because Jackson just sat it down in the street and continued on!

One of the houses gave out dum-dums, now how Jackson knew that he would like dum-dums, I have no idea, but he immediately gave it to me to take the wrapping off and start chomping down.

He also decided that he did not need Jared or I because he totally left us in the dust and headed back home!

Enjoying all his hard work...

Hope everyone had a great Halloween!!

I'm glad Jackson enjoyed trick or treating, even if he hated the costume at first. I'm impressed he kept the hood part on- we didn't have the same luck last year. He looked adorable in his costume!

Very cute little puppy - he looks like a trick or treating pro. I don't know why kids hate hoods so much. Vivian fought us about her outfit too until she found something better to do. It looks like you all had perfect weather - good thing your trick or treating was not on Halloween.

That costume is sooo cute! And Jackson makes the cutest puppy dog I have ever seen! We'll have to wait until next year for Ruby to enjoy Trick or Treat. Of course by that time we will also have a 5 month old in tow!
