Ok, October was nuts. Sadly I love the month and I'm going to pretend like this is a post from then. I absolutely loved decorating for Halloween even more this year because of Colin. Maybe that sounds dumb, because I'm sure he didn't appreciate the umpteen witches and jack-o-lanterns permeating every nook and cranny of our house, but still it was great! I'm finally going to be able to share my love for these holidays with my own child. It started with two Halloween shirts he wore all month long and ended with his dalmation costume that complemented my Cruella costume. Mind you, when I purchased my Cruella costume three years ago I fully intended then that my future child, girl or boy, would be a dalmation on their first Halloween. I purchased his costume in April and anxiously awaited my opportunity to wear it with him. Fun for us, with Halloween being on a Friday I got to wear it to school and bring him (it wasn't my day to teach so we just came for the party) AND wear it the next night to open the door for trick or treaters. I loved it. We just had so much fun and I can't wait until next year when he will understand more of what is going on.
