Halloween

This year Tean was a pirate, and a cute pirate at that! It was a super easy costume to make. Eye patch and sword from the dollar store, white shirt - DI, church pants and shoes, old material for head covering thingy and belt, and old material to make a vest and with all that, an adorable little pirate. We started off our Halloween two days early by going to a trunk-or-treat with Jake's parent's ward.

Tean loved that he got lots of candy. Halloween morning started out with pumpkin chocolate chip pancakes with vanilla sauce found here. I found the vanilla sauce on my new obsession, Pinterest. That afternoon, we went to lunch with some friends that used to live here and came up to visit. Then we started our trick-or-treating. First we went to the health and welfare offices, then we went to the Bishes RV trick-or-treat, then we went to another trunk-or-treat that my friends ward did, and finally we went to people in our neighborhood. For the first bit, Tean thought we just went to cars to get candy. He was a little confused when we started knocking on doors, but he soon realized he would get candy there too. Tean loved that he was able to eat lots of candy, and for a couple of weeks he thought that he got a piece of candy after every meal. We are just barely breaking him of that habit! It was fun seeing Tean get into the holiday and even say "Trick-or-Treat" at the doors.
