Happy Halloween 2007

We almost didn't go Trick or Treating. I convinced Ben to put his Dragon on after supper.. and I guess it was a little warm in the house.. and I wasn't fast enough getting him outside to the cool 50 degree temp., and the fleece of the costume was a little warm on his body and he started taking it off.. and then REFUSED to put it back on...
I tackled him and strapped it on anyway - all while he was kicking and screaming -- NO WAY am I going to slave over this costume and HE NOT WEAR IT! **grin** We quickly took him out back - b/c it was too early to go trick or treating still - but we wanted to give him time to transform into DRAGON BOY...
We walked up the street to see if his buddies - Hagen and Layla - were home.. (they weren't) and he decided this was going to be fun! He LOVED the reaction people gave him.. and he was having fun carrying his pumpkin and light... and from the top of the hill he would scream "DAD DAD DAD..." and run all the way down to the house.. exploding with information that he just had to tell his DAD...

Ben and his first trick or treat house... (and their groovy jack-o-lantern)
