This year we figured Oliver would be good for a few houses up and down the block - we had no idea he'd muster the energy to cover over 30!

Erin picked up a great costume for him (as you'll see below) - it was a dragon costume but rather than covering him entirely he stepped into it so his legs were the dragon's legs - but then the head came out by his stomach and the wings and tail came out the side and back. It was nice because a)he could see and enjoy the costumes and b) it was a cool night so we could put a jacket on without covering the costume up.

With help from his babysitter Debbie, who taught all the kids the motions of Halloween, he did a great job saying "Trick or Treat" at each house and following up with a "Thank you" after he got his candy. He had a great time and even this morning he came wandering into the bedroom with his bag as we were getting ready for work making yet another attempt at Trick or Treating. Heck he even said thank you after Erin stuck a (fresh) Kleenex in his bag. :)
