Halloween!!!

Kevin, Mia and I had an (okay) Halloween this year. I was a little disappointed... But in the end everything worked out okay! So, Kevin promised me at the beginning of the month on my birthday that we would do all the fun Halloween traditions together this year! He knew that it meant A LOT to me because this is one of my favorite holidays! Some of the traditions we talked about were...(Going to a pumpkin patch and picking our pumpkins, craving pumpkins, decorating the house, watching old and creepy Halloween movies, dressing up, and passing out candy to all the kids that came by our house!) I was so excited for this year to see all the kids in their cute and scary costumes, since last year we lived in a huge apartment complex on the third floor and the youngest kids that lived there were college students... Well... I'm sad to say out of all the fun Halloween traditions we had planned on doing, we were only able to actually participate in 2 out of the 6 on our list...

FIRST forget the pumpkin patch because of the rain... Kevin was NOT up for walking around in the rain for 30 minutes to buy a pumpkin...
SECOND, Kevin was also really was not up for craving pumpkins this year at all, because he would have to clean the mess up. We also didn't do this last Halloween either! I was not a happy person...
THIRD, I ended up doing all the decorations on the inside and outside of the house by myself... with NOOOOO help!!!!
FOURTH, last year, Kevin loved renting all the old scary movies and watching them with me. I was so excited that this year was going to be a repeat of that! But no... For some reason he wanted nothing to do with anything that involved scary movies! (I just don't get how all of a sudden things could change in one year...) I think I called him a baby about 100 times in the whole month of October! Haha!!!
FIFTH, Forget dressing up! I couldn't even get Kevin to even dress as a crazy NFL fan and wear all his AZ Cardinals stuff! He wanted nothing to do with dressing up for all the kids that came to our house. Sad huh?...
SIXTH, at the end of the night Kevin did end up participating in helping me pass out candy to all the kids... (and eating about half of the candy we bought!) I do admit i was a little angry with him about how our Halloween was going, but by the end of the night and after the Oregon football game was over, he was very helpful. Thanks Kev!

(We ended up finding the cutest little outfit for Mia to wear on Halloween. It ended up being the last of the dog costumes in the store and was missing a head piece for it, but knowing my dog she would only kept the whole outfit and costume on for a total of 2 minutes anyways. So we ended up going ahead and getting it for her. It was on clearance and was only for $3!!! It ended up fitting her perfect and she was so adorable in it!!!)
