Ben shared his list with Santa at a breakfast with Santa event this weekend. This year he asked for a lego train, helicopter and airplane.
Well, Ben recovered and was ready for trick-or-treating! Here's the costume Auntie and I made - and he actually WORE it - so that's good! The helmet was a tad wonky and he wore it the wrong way, but he had a great time so that's all that matters. He was very brave and walked up to a door and either said "Trick-or-Treat," "Happy Halloween" or his classic joke "Knock, Knock. Who's there? Banana. Banana who? PEACH!!!" We don't really get the joke, but he thinks it's hysterical. By the end of the night his backpack was FULL of candy and toys. It was a great night in Bubba & Grampy's neighborhood.
Ben's had a fever for five days (he seems to be feeling fine, but has had this fever for what feels like forever)! Joe and I really needed to get out of the house this weekend so we headed to Lone Elk Park to see the animals and fall leaves. It was a beautiful day and we were glad to get out of the house for a bit! Here's to hoping Ben's better by Halloween - I've worked WAY too hard on his costume for him to be sick :) Pics to come...
