Trick or Treat!

Last night. Silas donned his adorable sock monkey costume and headed to the neighbors' for our first Halloween stop.




He was, of course, extremely excited to see his friends' costumes as well as show off his own.


Raegan, who shares a birthday with Si, was a precious ladybug, and Logan, born a month later, dressed as a pumpkin. These three will undoubtedly have big fun in the future. It did crack me up because Silas looks like the BFG (Big Friendly Giant) sitting next to the two of them. As usual he didn't smile. He doesn't have any big sisters, so he was too busy watching Logan's to smile.


We left there and met tiger Coop-dog to trick-or- treat at Mimi's. Boy, was he excited to see her!



Cooper and Silas refused to take a nice picture together again, but we tried! (and tried, and tried, and tried, and tried. Don't worry, I'll save you from the out takes. :) This was the best I could get.)




Once Richard arrived, we took a quick family picture so that we could make it to the Keel's before bedtime. (Grandmother and Granddaddy live so far out that we didn't make it to their house.)



Cooper's excitement wore him out, and he headed on home to bed. Si was still raring to go. Good thing because Graunt Kay was extremely thoughtful...she had a whole bowl full of Si candy! (Fruit baby food in all flavors!) I accidentally left my camera in the car. Thankfully, Graunt Kay took a pic I can borrow.



Tonight our church had a fall festival. Since sock monkeys were not present during biblical times, Si changed gears and went as Adam- complete with fig leaves, a bandaid where God took a rib to make Eve, and a paci.


(Since he got his tooth, he is continually sucking his lips like that!)



Golf ball = DELICIOUS! You can see the band-aid a little better here. All night people asked if he got a shot. My reply, "No, he has a booboo where God took his rib to make Eve." Everyone cracked up!


Si hammed up every single second. He actually won best preschool costume and scored a $25 gift certificate to Toys R Us. Boy oh boy! Here is how the announcement took place. We were still on the 2nd floor of the gym helping undecorate. Richard hears, "And the preschool costume winner is Silas Tisdale! Come on up here! ... Where is Silas?" Richard then steps onto the balcony and yells down in front of everyone, "He's asleep!" Cracks me up.

Si spent the majority of the night in our Sunday School room manning our game..."Hole in One for Jesus." All of that smiling and working was enough to wear out a little buddy. Thankfully Mom brought PJ's, so he stripped out of his Adam-wear and pretended he was at home in bed.
