Halloween was crazy this year. Tater Man and I went to
several stores and he tried on 3 costumes only for him to fall in love with the
last one. Go figure! I was a momma on a mission.
So happy....for candy! |
We missed doing our trick or treating with The Smith’s this
year because we went to the neighborhood where Mr. Randolph’s parents live.
There was definitely a lot more going on in this subdivision than we were used
too. They had trucks pulling trailers full of kids and lots of scary costumes.
I am glad Tater Man was not scared of the trailer ride but
sad because we were holding back the other kiddos Trick or Treating. Tater
needed to look at each pumpkin, black cat, and play some red light green light
whilst the other kids knew to get in get the candy and then get out. So instead
of him riding in the trailer with the other kids we walked, skipped, and hopped
to each house. Oh well, I will be bringing the wagon next year.

I was a little upset at a few of the parents because they
were not watching their preteens that were practically running over the
toddlers to get to the candy. Not Cool! Then on top of that why in the world
would you have a Jason/Freddy Kruger/Slasher mask on when a group of two year
olds are coming up to your table? All you had was freaked out babies either
crying or running away or if you are Tater, just decided to skip that house
completely! Mr. Randolph had to gesture to a few of the guys for them to take
their masks off. At least I was not alone in my feelings.
Besides all that drama Tater had a great time and even got
in a little hopscotch and had the ladies oohing and ahhing over his skills. Big
Ham! I believe it would have been more fun for Tater to be with one of his
cousins. Maybe next year!
Tater Man was not happy because Lightening kept him from running fast-fast! |
I am happy to say all my nieces and nephews were some of the
best dressed babies for Halloween, there was a Cowardly Lion, T-Rex, LSU Cheerleader,
LSU Football Player, and a Greek God!
Daddy was our hero and made all the bad scary people go away!
Of course Papaw makes all things better! |
Its blurry but I still find Tater's expression priceless! |
LOL - love that last pic! Matthew was a little scared of some of the costumes this year too. They're becoming more aware of their surroundings - a good thing and a bad thing!
ReplyDeleteoh how adorable! I love his costume.
ReplyDeleteI love his costume! And, I so agree about older kids not being considerate of the younger crowd. It's almost like there should be two separate times to trick-or-treat for the two different crowds. lol.
