Halloween Is My New Favorite Holiday

This year I was able to fully grasp the magnitude that is Halloween.  I thought that Jerry Seinfeld bit about Halloween and how putting on various weird outfits would make people give you free candy was a joke, but it turns out it is 100% true!!! Mommy, Daddy, and I hit our neighborhood hard.  At one point, my bucket was too heavy for me to even carry, so Mommy dumped it in her bag and on we went with round two!  I found knocking and ringing doorbells at every house in site to be quite exciting as well.

Here I am carving the pumpkin I got at the pumpkin patch during preschool! With some assistance from mom and dad, I made a carved pumpkin of the traditional sort. It was a little exciting.

Proud of my pumpkin. Watch this, I'm pretty sure I can palm it like a little basketball!

Out in the field ringing doorbells and getting candy!  

When my legs couldn't carry me anymore, it was time to call it a night. I gave it all I could, and the rewards were great. This is one happy Captain America!

I did say "trick or treat" to everyone who answered their door, but I'm pretty sure it was my bulging muscles and raging abs that intimidated them into giving me the candy.

Mommy and daddy played supportive roles during the night. You know, backup costumes, hauling the extra candy, holding my hand when crossing the street, and hauling extra candy. With our powers combined, it was quite the successful night!

I loved helping mom and dad decorate for Halloween. I was on spider detail, placing the creepy critters of all sizes in various locations around our porch. We even have a remote control spider.

The results after a fun night of carving and roasting pumpkin seeds. 

More pumpkin carving! My wondrous work is the one in the middle, in the back.
