Halloween

Our little man dressed up as a police officer for Halloween. I didn't think he would enjoy a big costume, and considering he wouldn't even wear his police hat, I'm glad we went with a simple costume. He got to dress up a couple of times. The first time we joined the Lake Norman Mommies play group at the tot lot in Davidson for a play date and snacks - all the kiddos wore their costumes. He ran around and played in the sandbox. It was pretty day to be outside!

The only shot I could get before he ripped his hat off. Isn't he cute though? The tot lot was great - it is a park designed for toddler aged children. It has a big sandbox and tons of ride on/push toys for the kids to move about in a safe environment. 

And here is the little officer digging in the sand. He had a fun time!

On Halloween we went over to our friends house, the Rigneys, and joined them and some other friends for tick or treating. Since Jackson had know idea what was happening, we just pushed him in the stroller and he watched the bigger kids run around. He still received a couple of pieces of candy and some gold fish. Mommy enjoyed the candy! :)

Our crew: Lauren and Elliott, me and Jackson, Tracy and Merrick, and Ashley with Luke and Emma. 

Jackson out trick or treating! He was happy just to hold his pumpkin. :)
