Happy Halloween

What a great second Halloween we had with our monkey, Josiah. It started with Rich taking a half day so he could bring Josiah to a Halloween party at my office. Joey had such as great time. When the trick or treating began he followed the bigger kids into the first office and laughed as they said "trick or treat" and got their candy. No "trick or treat" for him though. He just kept on laughing and followed them out. He sort of got the hang of it after a while. There were about 14 kids that ranged in age from 3 months to 8 years. We had a crab, shark, flower, skunk, bat, Batman, princess and many more costumes! The kids got pumpkin bags filled with balloons, bubbles and some other treats.




From there we headed to Grandpa Joe's where I let him have 2 bites of a kit kat bar. Of course he loved that! We stayed long enough to have a soda (me) and beer (Rich). Once we left Grandpa Joe we headed over to Abuela Toni's. We had dinner and got to hang with Josiah's cousin Pia. She is 6 months and dressed up as Mickey Mouse. She looked SO cute! Ethan also dropped by with his mommy and daddy. To our surprise both boys were monkeys. They looked super cute together! Joey's Cousin Angelo also made an appearance as a firefighter. What a busy trip to Grandma Toni's!




Once we left Abuela's we headed to Grandma and Grandpa Cook's house. Joey got to see his cousin Aviva. She was dressed up like a princess. She even wore Great Gran's earrings. She looked so pretty. Gran would have loved it! We passed out a bit of candy and then headed for home. Unfortunately, we didn't get any pictures of Vivy; she had a bit of an accident and changed as soon as she got home. She was very upset that she the princess had an accident. We had to remind her even pretty princesses have mishaps!

Just as we pulled into the driveway we saw Jack the Choo Choo, Jess and Jose. They were heading back from trick or treating. They joined us for a little more trick or treating around the neighborhood and them came over for a bit. We let the boys burn off a bit more energy and then we all headed to bed after a long, fun Halloween!
