Ben, Max, Havanna, and Nevaeh getting ready for zoo boo This year Ben got a ton of use out of his Halloween Costume. First, we went to Spicers Orchard with the Neighbors like we do every year...this year we had two new additions:Josie and Hayden. The kids had a blast and enjoyed the cider and donuts (the parents too!) After we were all full from donuts we let the kids go the the large playground, they are at such a fun age!
The second time Ben was able to wear his costume was when we were in Berrien Springs visiting some friends. The zoo in South Bend, Indiana was doing a Zoo Boo and we decided since it was such a beautiful day we should go. Ben got lots of good practice saying Trick or Treat and of course checking out all of the animals was a huge bonus too!
And finally, on Halloween , Ben was able to put his costume on one more time and walk around the neighborhood collecting enough candy to last us a year. He had so much fun and did a really great job...I had to remind him at every house to say Trick or Treat loud enough for the people to hear him...it was actually pretty cute because some times he would just yell it as loud as he could! He carried his pumpkin almost the whole way (at least until it got to heavy for him to lift it up for more candy) :) He is definitely to the age where I look forward to Halloween and seeing him all dressed up and acting like such a big kid!
