Hut….HUT….Halloween!!!

A few weeks before Halloween, we got Q all suited up to take pictures with Mammer & Slickpaw in his cool Brady Quinn uniform! Since Slickpaw is hugely responsible for the coolness of this outfit, and since they weren’t going to be able to come for Halloween, we knew that Quinn had to show off his stuff for him! :) And, we needed pictures for Quinn’s football trading cards that he’d be giving to his friends!!!…

Then, after a little reminiscing, it was time to celebrate Halloween with our BIG 2 1/2 year old!!!…

We headed to the front yard for our annual “Smelly feet pumpkin” picture…and even got to include Baby Michael in on the fun!!!…

Then, we headed to the church for the “Trunk or Treat!” Quinn and Daddy figured out a game plan (I guess!? I’m not really sure what Matt is telling him), and then it was time for the fun… Quinn handed out his trading cards to all of his buddies… …and had a blast playing, sliding, running, and getting INSANE amounts of candy!!!… {I guess that’s what you get for being a minister’s kid! :)}

Matt and I decided to participate a little this year as “Quinn’s Biggest Fans!” Even though it wasn’t an extravagant costume, it’s so much fun to dress up!!! Can you find Quinn?...

I loved that you could still see his monkey “wear wear” through his football pants and that my tough football player wasn’t too tough to pick mommy a flower! :) … After we could Trunk or Treat no more, we headed home to turn on our porch light! Every 20 seconds, the doorbell would ring, and Quinn and I would RUN to the door to hand out candy to our visitors! It was so much fun (most of the time) to see what costumes everyone had on! And, it didn’t take long for us to run out of candy and call it a night! It was such a FUN Halloween! I feel like Quinn ‘got it’ a little more this year! He loved dressing up and had a great time just being a kid! I can’t wait to see what he chooses to be next year!!! I just hope I can dress up with him again! :)
