Last year Halloween was a little sad with no trick-or-treaters and a sick kiddo. This year we tried to have a lot more fun!
Sunday afternoon before Halloween the whole family met at my mom's house for our traditional pumpkin carving. Sawyer wasn't hugely interested, but he was a good sport and I had fun!
Tuesday night, October 30, Sawyer and I met my dad and family at Champions for a family fried chicken dinner. They had some special Halloween things outside - little games and activities for the kids, and then some kid-friendly treats to go with dinner. It was good to take the costume for a test drive, and fun for some family to see Sawyer all dressed up! (No pictures... I was single parenting!)
Wednesday night we took Sawyer up to church/school for the Fall Festival. It was too warm for his costume and really overwhelming with people, so we didn't stay too long, but I'm glad we went. Trick-or-treating doesn't really happen in our neighborhood so it was a good option for us this year.
As you can tell, we lost the costume halfway through our time at the Festival. We found the "preschool" area and it was much more Sawyer's speed. He loved the large, open bouncy thing and a table full of rice. We stopped by Lolly and Pops' house on our way home to get a little more use out of the costume!
We had fun celebrating, despite the warm weather. I'm hoping for lower temperatures next year! :)
