Halloween was such a fun holiday this year! Especially because I got to be home and help out with Nathan's school Halloween party this year. It was a packed, fun-filled day!
This year Nate chose to dress up as Spiderman. It was a tough decision making process for him trying to decide between Captain America, Spiderman and Ironman. But eventually Spiderman won out. Cam didn't have much of a choice since his costume possibilities were limited. But he was a good sport dressing up as a Skeleton. As an added bonus, his costume glowed in the dark.
We began the day by attending Nathan's school Halloween parade. What a treat for me to get to go--I usually have to miss it because of work. Each classroom takes a turn visiting and "trick or treating" at the other classrooms. It was fun to see all the great costumes and of course Nathan was excited to get his first round of candy loot!
After lots of teeth brushing and a much needed nap, Nana and Pops came over and we all headed back up to Nathan's school for his Halloween Party. My friend Katie and I helped to put it on. (Fun fact--Katie and I grew up together. She lived just a few doors down from me. Now her daughter and Nathan are in the same class at school. So amazing that we grew up together and now our kids are growing up together!). The party was fun with lots of yummy snacks, and activities such as ghost bowling, witch hat ring toss and decorating mini pumpkins.

We all headed home and Uncle Ryan and Carly came over to join in on the trick or treating. After a warm chili dinner, the gang got ready to head out. Uncle Ryan was a great sport and dressed up as a Ninja Turtle. Nathan was ecstatic. Papa, Pops, Uncle Ryan and Carly all took Nate trick or treating while Nana, Cameron and I stayed home to pass out candy. Trick or treating is popular in our neighborhood so someone has to stay home or you get in big trouble. Nathan ended up staying out for over an hour! I was impressed since he's only 2.5. And what a loot he came home with. We've barely made a dent in his candy bucket. But what a fun time. He had a blast. Excited for both boys to go trick or treating next year!
