The Apple truly doesn't fall far from The Tree

For the record...not much has gone as planned lately and our costumes were no exception.

We made the best of it... as you'll see!

Tristan was a HUGE hit. He would hold his bat trick or treat bag... walk up to the door, knock, say tick-oooo-teeeee when they answered.  I was SO proud of him because he would take ONE piece of candy,  most people were telling him to come back for more... and then he would say teee tooooo (thank you) then bye bye and walk away. 

It was truly awesome to watch him have so much fun.  Enjoy....

The Apple Tree and his little Apple

(and yes, I know that T's outfit is two different reds.  We were supposed to be in a colder climate... colder sweatshirt - nothing I could do about it)

Don't my boys look cute?  Holt bleached out the Apple Computer apple... can you see it?

 Oh yeah baby... here we are in all our glory.

I'll have you know, those two outfits cost me a crap load of skin from my knee and my finger (hot glue gun was H-O-T!)

And here I am.  A cowgirl.  How lame.  I was dressing up as his "Mummy" but a) I couldn't make it myself I needed Ginger; B) it was HOT c) IT WAS HOT

So... I did my best with what I had

Here we are ...house #1 was Bumpa's and Bebah's.

Bebah answers and sees her little apple!

TIC OOOO TEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

she's all proud and kept tossing candy in his bag (or sack as they like to say here - hee, hee, hee)

Then we stopped over to see Aunt Debby and Katelyn was home too!!

then he just marched right inside ... and helped himself to the bucket, played with the dogs, ran around for a sec.... greatness!

Debby's spooky punkins!

 then this guy... he had it going on!

TV in the front yard watching football and the Rangers game... a flaming pumpkin and some chow - nice! 

Then across the street was Daddy Howard and Mimi!!!

Tristan was so happy to see Daddy Howard to ran up the sidewalk with open arms to go grab some treats!!

then Mimi came out with the big bucket and of course, T scored!

after he gave hugs too!

showed off his good s and he was ready to move on.

he was all business.  he got it.  you walk, you knock, you say please - you get candy.  DONE!

Quick photo op for me though!

Then I talked Holt  into a few more houses....

he was instructing us as to where we were going to go...

then he went with Mommy....

Tic ooooooooooo teeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

he would take one... and they would tell him to take more.  SOOOOOOOOOO cute!

Cowgirl with no head here....

oh there I am!

T's kinda creepy in this one... very Halloweeeeeny

 next please!

 We stopped by Ms. Birdie's house... Tristan's first nanny that I LOVE.  She was out with her grandkids, we had just missed her and I was so sad but her hubby was there.  Charles I think (terrible I can't remember)

They were all decked out... even some creepy stuff that T wasn't so sure about.

Charles told us about retiring as of November 1st, he was very happy and it was nice to see him ready to sit and rest awhile and enjoy the rest of his life.  man I love them!!

 then we went across the street...

trick was on us... no candy there!  T didn't appreciate that one for sure!

 then down the street a little... this lady loved Tristan..

she made him come back for more too

and here he is waiting on someone to answer....

then finally I ran in the house and let him trick or treat here.  He didn't come in.  he took candy and said thank you and waited.

I said you live here goof - come in! We all chuckled!

Then he went through his stash... he chowed down a 3 Musketeers (bleck) at Bebah's house, a Nestle's Crunch, some Tootsie rolls and of course... the last house gave him his beloved sucker.

 Trying to open the Crunch but Mommy said no more!

He went to bed with his bag.  He loves it.

 Daddy in the final moments of wearing his costume...

 Me about to call it a night and Tristan pushing the button saying "mommy, mommy cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeese"

too cute!

Happy Halloween

Tristan helped me answer the door for a while.. and we would open the door and he would jump up and down and say tick ooooooooo teeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee 

then he would reach into his basket and give them candy.  it was SO cute and I was so proud of him.  We certainly don't need him eating all of it so once we went through what we bought, he gave away his. 

Ok, fine... I saved him a few.

 Daddy wants to make sure everyone understands... he IS the Apple Tree that loves Halloween and

 T... is the Halloween lovin' Apple!!!

Hope you enjoyed!!!

Nighty Night!
