Gabe's First Halloween

Gabe really enjoyed his 2 days of Halloween. On Friday, we went back to visit all his friends in Grammie's first grade class. We weren't sure how he'd like the chicken that makes an appearance each year, but he loved her. I think he thought it was like a big puppet he could hug.

Meeting the chicken:
And of course he loved being taken around with Grammie:

On Saturday we trick or treated on our block and watched all the kids pour in to our house. Gabe was thrilled to see all these big kids come to HIS house.

Before we went out:

Hitting a neighbor's house with Dad:

Walking with Mom:

After he got his loot:


Eatin' the loot with Grandma:
Banging and throwing the leftovers:

Looks like a GREAT first Halloween. Love your costume, Gabe. Very cute!! Don't eat TOO much candy all at once, OK?! Save some for your mommy & daddy too.

I love Gabe's costume, and I am really impressed he did so well with the chicken. Most kids would have been crying immediately.

Boy, nothing says "Happy Halloween" quite like a ginormous yellow fluffy chicken...right? Looks like Gabe took it in stride - excellent. Cutest penguin ever!!!! I really like the photo of Gabe with his loot.

Gabe is such a cutie! Ok, I would have been terrified of that chicken at his age I think. He's just all sorts of comfortable though! I love his costume too. My favorite is him digging in the candy...hilarious!

More candy!!!
I'm actually a little scared of that chicken right now... Gabe is pretty brave!

Wait a minute - is that the back cover of "The Secret Language of Birthdays" in the 6th photo? I would recognize that book anywhere! I suppose Gabe was doing a little bit of research in the days leading up to his first birthday. Brilliant and wise indeed.
