Halloween

Last year's Halloween was pretty low key considering Tucker was only a couple of weeks old. He slept in his stroller through the entire carnival. Well this year we pulled out all of the stops...and Tucker loved every minute of it. He went dressed as a monkey. He was absolutely cute despite sweating a lot due to the warmer weather. We began the fun on Wednesday with a trip to Ada for the Trinity carnival. Tucker loved the duck pond. He screamed when we had to let other kids have a turn, so we broke the rules and returned for a second time.

Friday was a big day for all. We passed out candy to a few trick-or-treaters before heading to the church carnival. Tucker had a ball going to the various booths and even won the cake walk a couple of times. He got lots of candy for mommy and daddy to enjoy...even though Tucker snuck a little taste Saturday morning. While washing dishes I noticed that Tucker was quiet. I peeked around the corner to see that he had found the candy bowl and was helping himself to a mini-reese's cup. He enjoyed half of it while I fished the wrapper out of his mouth. Later, we completed the weekend of Halloween fun with a trip to Ada for Ada's official trick-or-treat night where he got a mega-size bag of M&Ms. Wow, I'm thankful that we get an extra hour of sleep tonight!
