Halloween 2008: No costume - No problem!

Yep, you read correctly...Grant did not have a costume for Halloween this year. We tried to get him one and took him to around 4 different places to try them on, but he was having absolutely none of that! Not only did he not want to wear a costume, he didn't even want to try on a costume or even let us approach him slowly with a costume - he would just run away! So rather than fight that fight we saved our $30 and bought a cute Halloween Snoopy t-shirt for him to wear instead. And just for a little more Halloween flare we all put temporary tattoos on our arms!

Grant really enjoyed the spider tattoo on his arm, he kept pointing to it.

Instead of trick-or-treating we went to a Fall Festival hosted by a local Baptist church. They had all kinds of activities for the kiddos to do and Grant loved it! He started off the night by riding the pedal tractor around the track. He had to have some help steering from Dad though.

Then we moved onto the hay ride! It was a short little ride but enjoyable all the same.

After a few more rides and a jump in the Bounce-House Grant was wearing down but perked back up for a new experience...his first lollipop! He loved it and had about 2 more that night!

What a fun night! We all went home a crashed! I'm sure that Grant had dreams of lolli-pops all night long!
