Halloween 2009

Bren, in true 2-year old fashion, refused to wear his costume. In fact, he cried and pulled at it and spent 30-minutes naked rather than wear it. So, once I could get a shirt on him, we took Gracie the dog outside to spend Halloween on Kiki and Baka's front porch waiting for trick-or-treaters.  And of course, we had a great time. 

Here are 3 mini-videos capturing the evening. Note: carrying a tiny handheld camera while chasing a 2-year old and holding onto a 5-month old puppy's leash makes for VERY bumpy, jumpy, queasy-inducing video. Enjoy.

Hopefully the costume will fit next year. Costume or no costume, Bren loved saying "trick or treat" and then eating a piece of chocolate. Yes, the dog had chocolate too.  Hey, I'm new to the dog-sitting thing.
