BOO

Husband and I have never been ones to excitingly participate in anything Halloween.  It's just not our thing and I really do not know why.  Even so, this year's festivities turned out to be well worth our participation.  We had such a fun and crazy Friday--poor David is still recovering from it.  Of course, it doesn't help that he is cutting his 8th tooth and day light's savings time just occurred.  

Basically the little man spent every waking hour in his absolutely precious beyond cute turtle costume.  I am obsessed. 

We started the day by meeting Nanny and Susu (my mom and sis) for lunch.  This was followed by a trip to Daddy's office and then Papaw's law firm to show off the cuteness that was this turtle.  He ran up and down the halls dazzling everyone with his turtle likeness.

We then rushed to meet up with my friend Courtney and her son Harrison to watch the Homecoming Parade.  Dave got to see his Aunt Maynee march with the Dorians and our cousins ride on a various floats.  It was really fun, but David was DESPERATE for a nap.  So, we then rushed home to let him sleep away the afternoon.

This was followed by a trip back to see his friend Harrison and trick or treat with the Baxley and Holt families.  Really, the boys did not trick or treat at all.  We simply loaded them up in the wagon and strolled over to the neighborhood block party.  It was crazy crowded and was overflowing with kids, food, and music.  So fun!

Right when it was too dark to wonder around the roads with a toddler, we headed over to meet up with Nanny and Papa (my parents) and hang out with some other couple friends at another Halloween party.  We spent most of the night there eating great food and enjoying the company.  David was delirious and desperate for sleep.  So, we loaded up and made one last stop to see some friends in Homewood before heading back home.  To say the least, we are exhausted.

However, we had one last festivity Sunday night with our Community Group from church.  This time, all 3 of us dressed up: David as the trusty turtle and Husband/Me as Juno and Bleaker from the movie Juno.  We are so thankful for the relationships the Lord has given us through our church community group.  Yay for community!!

Now, David and I will spend the week recovering from the high paced life we are not accustomed to.  Hopefully we can get the little man a few serious naps in here and there for his own sanity.  This boy requires a lot of sleep.

****NO, we are NOT pregnant.  Juno herself is pregnant in the movie, so thus I was fake preggers for the night.  Again, not pregnant.  K, thanks.****
