A Halloween of Sorts

Halloween has always been one of my favorite days of the year. In general the whole month of October is so much fun- pumpkins, hay rides, cool weather, and of course trick-or-treating. When I was in middle school I remember loving the month of October because when I wrote the date on the top of my papers I'd make the "O" in October a pumpkin- I was so clever. ;)

This year Oliver was a pirate, and what a precious little pirate he was. Seriously, has there ever been such a cute pirate? I think not.

Our Halloween plans changed somewhat because Oliver got sick at the end of the week and was dealing with a yucky ear infection. Luckily he was feeling well enough to go trick-or-treating that night, but we didn't get to do the Halloween festivities we had planned that morning. Luckily Oliver is still young enough that he didn't really know he was missing out.

Jim and I went to a Halloween party as Olive Oyl and Popeye, it was a lot of fun- but the fun didn't last for long. We were back at the house on Sunday painting trim. And no, we haven't moved in yet.
