Trunk Or Treat

10/25 - Ward Trunk or Treat party. James LOVES his Willie Nelson costume! I had a great time constructing it and he had an even better time helping me. The hair and the vest only stay on him for a few minutes at a time, but they are super cute when he has them on.

The first time we got him ready (see below pictures) he goes "Mammas don't let babies grow up cowboys." (That's his song I've been trying to teach him to sing.) Then we spent about 20 minutes looking in the mirror. He'd see himself and just giggle his guts out. Then we'd load another item in the car to get ready to go and he's say "Let's go look in the mirror again Mamma." Then he'd just smile and giggle this silly little look-at-me laugh. It was wonderful to see him so excited.


Isabel made an adorable owl. She was a really good girl at the party too. As long as there are children around to watch, she's a happy girl.


JL took James around trunk or treating. James was so excited over all the treats that he got. The trick was getting him to stop eating it!

James is a perfect "Willie" and his costume couldn't be cuter --- love his braids! And, Izzy is an adorable little Owl. Looks like Halloween was wonderful at your house again this year.
