Halloween

Here is the last of the Halloween festivities. I could probably drag out the blog for a few days with all of it but I’m pretty over Halloween so I will lump it all together.

Friday afternoon my work had their Halloween party. Last year I swore if I was still working there that I would bring Alec in and so I did.  It was well worth it. I feel like the pictures I can show you don’t do it justice.

My prestigious space. Jealous aren’t you? 

Our little corner of Human Resources. We handed out balloons to the 40+ kids that came. They were a big hit. What kid doesn’t like a balloon?

One of the conference rooms filled with crafts, games and food.

The Farm…it was awesome. The red thing in the back is a cut out of a barn.

Payroll was a lame with their cutout skeleton face.

Next up was the garden path.

And a Circus …that had a popcorn machine and cotton candy machine. I didn’t get too many pictures of it. (I took this the day before)

I took this the day before- on the big day the conference room was transformed into a haunted house put on by the Technology group. It was awesome and pretty scary! Alec would not go through it without me.

Some of the graves:

And one I swear was made just for Alec:

If you don’t get it –stop by my house. Alec will explain it to you.

These were just a few of the stops in the building. It was a fun afternoon.

Saturday morning we attended Saco’s Haunted Breakfast with the Knox Family.  We got there a little late (read: on time) so our seating was a little dicey but we managed.  The kids were pretty low-key for them and didn’t eat much but that really isn’t the point at a haunted breakfast is it? :)

They got their faces painted and tattoo’s on their hands.

They played a few games and 50 minutes later it was done. Now that’s what I am talkin’ about.  In and out baby! 

And finally the big night. You know all about it so I will just show you the pictures.

Hopefully this is the last time we will see the Spiderman outfit on Alec on Halloween. 2 years is just a little much for me. I think I would have been so much more excited if he was wearing something different. And don’t think I didn’t try ‘cause I did. I tried just about everything. I even sat him down with a costume catalog and told him I would buy him whichever one he picked. Took a gamble there didn’t I?  ;)  But nothin’ doin’. For him it was Spiderman. Non-negotiable. And so I was left to dig deep, get over myself, and be thankful for a healthy young boy who wants to be a superhero. And a cute one at that.

My fingers are crossed for Halloween 2012.
