Happy Halloween!

This afternoon we went to the pumpkin patch at The Arboretum and took some great pictures of James. He was a busy boy running everywhere and climbing all over the pumpkins!










What a difference a year makes! Below is my favorite picture of James from the pumpkin patch at the Arboretum in October of 2009. He was only 5 1/2 months old.



Tonight we went over to Wes and Kim Morgan's house in Allen and went trick-or-treating with all of the Morgan brothers and families. Sean grew up with them all in San Antonio and has been friends with them for years. We are now all great family friends. There are 6 kids in all, so far, and they range from 1-6 years old so it is a fun group to get together.

James was supposed to be Elmo for Halloween and actually wore the costume at school on Friday for the school Halloween Party. I had yet to get him to wear the costume but Ms. Deb & Ms. Vanessa, James' teachers, can get him to do things that I can't, ha! We have a video clip of James as Elmo that our friend Dan took but Sean and I were both at work so we were not at the party so we do not have pictures of James as Elmo. It was too warm outside for James to be Elmo tonight so his backup costume was a fireman. He wore his fireman hat, red t-shirt, and jeans. I was surprised James really got the concept of trick-or-treating. He was quite social and would smile and try to talk to everyone who gave him candy!
