Evan's Halloween

I went back and forth on deciding if I should get Evan a Halloween costume. Being only a year-old, we weren't going around the block and he'd not be comfortable in anything over his head. But on the other hand, he would be greeting the Trick or Treaters. On the other hand, he'll only be doing it for an hour. On the other hand, where's my Halloween spirit?! As I continually argued with myself, coming up with reasons why I should and shouldn't, time made the decision for me. It was All-hallow's Eve before I knew it and Evan was still without a costume.

At 5p, Ah mah and I decided to take a stroll around the block and we put Evan in his bear jacket. Daddy came up with the brilliant idea of making him a cape. (I know, I know...choking hazard). Of course Daddy wasn't about to share his Jaws cape, and tied Evan's blue blanket around his neck loosely. The result was Super Bear in jeans!

Evan appreciated his blanket and was snugging up to it through out the entire walk. He was having a good time.
He did find the candy. He especially enjoyed the Snickers bars as they were easy to hold and were squishy. Although Evan did not get to eat the candy, he managed to squeeze many Snickers bars. I now have many malformed Snickers bars all over my house. It will be hard to explain to future guest what the small, brown, poo-like things around my living room are.....
