Cohen's "first" halloween!

Ummm..... HELLO!!!!!!!!!!! I guess I can brag, cause one, this is MY blog, two... he's my son, and three.... DUH, look at him!!!! :)

Wow, I had my expectations for how I was expecting Halloween to be this year, and WOW, it didn't go ANYTHING like I expected!! however, the evening did end with these great pictures, So i guess, it was a success.....

I guess I should explain... Saturday morning, Jeff and I decided to drive up to Park city to the outlet mall. Well, we left a lot later than we had expected, so i was hoping Cohen would just take a little snooze in the car. Trust me, Jeff and I are regretting that one, BIG TIME. We have NEVER, N.E.V.E.R skipped Cohen's nap before. And we will NEVER, N.E.V.E.R, E.V.E.R DO IT AGAIN!!!!! woooooowwwwwzers! I won't even go into detail.... just use your imagination............ :)

So when we finally got home, it was definitely too late to lay him down for a nap, cause it was time to get him ready for trick-or-treating! Well, since Jeff and I haven't gone trick or treating in years, we had NO idea what time people usually start going. We were just planning on going around our cul-de-sac, and then up to Jeff's aunt's house that lives around the corner, and then up to Jeff's sisters house for dinner. Well we got ONE trick or treater..... It was really sad. And Cohen wanted outside so bad. He just would wander around. And if I'd bring him back into the house, he would LITERALLY run like five feet, THROW himself onto the floor, and THRASH AROUND screaming and crying. I have NEVER witnessed anything like that before!!! I was soooo tempted to take a picture, or a video of this event, but then i was thinking, I don't really want to re-live that! Wow....

Cohen wasn't interested in trick-or-treating at all. He just wanted to walk around. He just threw one fit at a time..................

Okay, enough complaining.... I shouldn't be, knowing how fetching cute he is! I have DEFINITELY learned my lesson! And I know he's still a little too young to really understand this holiday.... maybe next year I'll have some better stories!

HA HA HA!!!! So Jeff and I aren't really fans of Halloween.... We were invited to a Halloween party, so obviously we had to come up with something. I'm sorry, but like all the costumes at the party stores, are so lame, and so expensive. We could not justify spending fifty bucks on some costume we would wear once. So then we were trying to come up with something from our closet. Well the night before the party, I was taking a shower.... and the photos above are what I came up with in my head!! We were the all time biggest nerds. PERFECT!!! yes, that is the most Awesome New Kids on the Block sweater you have ever seen, yes those are maternity capri's I am wearing OVER my sweater... yes, Jeff is just ever so handsome!

Totally paid off though, cause we won "MOST DISGUSTING COSTUME" at the party!!!! WOOO HOOOO!!! :)
