Happy Halloween 2017!!!

Well this year Pax came up with another doosey for his costume idea!! He wanted to be the Midnight Zone of the Ocean. How could a mom say no to that!!!! So off to the fabric store we went to gather all the components for one groovy deep ocean outfit - complete with blob fish feet and an angler fish head! Of course it lit up!!! See if you can name all the other creatures!!!

Something super fun about all this was that mom and dad joined in on the theme - as usual! I was the twighlight zone of the ocean and daddy was Jacques Costeau!!! Fun was had by all! Pax even won a costume contest and got heeeeaaaappss of candy!!!

Our tradition has been to take our costume pics at one of our favorite Colorado pumpking patches, but this year... weeeelllll... that didn't exactly happen. Exactly. You see, the week before the big haunt was spent Lone Starring about. P and I left our humble abode in Denver and drove to the place I grew up to see friends and family, visit with Big Tex at the State Fair while we snacked on a Fletcher's corny dog, take a bike ride from my old elementary school to my childhood home to the neighborhhod convenience store to have a candy bar on the curb (just like the good old days), bottle feed a baby goat, ride a miniature horse, hang out with Hamilton the baby pig, see a cousin win a cross country race, play with cousins, go to a little school carnival and just plain have fun. So instead we took pics in our front yard - which coincidentally also served as our pumpkin patch this year!!! Hooray for our little garden!!!

So here ya go, straight from the Mariana Trench, Pax's halloween dream!!!!
