Remember Halloween?!?

Although today I was excitedly making a Santa beard advent calendar, this Halloween post has been on my mind.

Jackson was introduced to Peter Pan over the summer and then late summer he discovered Jake and Neverland. When it came time for Halloween costume ideas, this was our costume!

He was really excited about it was telling people leading up to Halloween that he was going to be Peter Pan! Jackson is always playing pretend and around September and October was always saying "You be Captain Hook" and running from the pirate. Sometimes when there was more than one more person around to play someone was always told to be Smee!

He was so excited for his costume and got into the character at times. His sword was a big hit, a foam one we found at the Dollar Spot at Target in September. My dad was so amazing to join in it too. He was watching the kids on Halloween while I was at work, so he dressed up too! He arrived bright and early as Captain Hook! Even though my dad had been telling Jackson that he would be dressing up with him, Jackson was still completely mesmerized. He was nothing but smiles as stares in the early morning of first seeing my dad (yes he was already awake before I left for work).

They had a great Halloween visiting the library. Usually very talkative and comfortable at the library, my dad said he was a little shy with everyone in costumes. 

My Aunt Marcia made Jackson tunic and hat for his costume. She did an amazing job sewing it and adding little detail. His pants were Ninja Turtle pajama bottoms that ended up working out perfectly. 

Jackson was so excited to get into the Halloween candy at my aunt's house. He tried a few before loving Kit-Kats!

Emerson was a little pumpkin, dressing up in a stylish headband and spooky shirt. My dad, Jackson and I made quite the Captain Hook, Peter Pan and .... can you guess who I was??

...Smee!
