We hadn't planned on it, but we spent Halloween this year back in Salem, VA with my parents. With hurricane Sandy coming in Sunday night/Monday prior, we decided to hit the road and go down that way, just in case we lost power and things got bad (they didn't...power stayed on here in MD). But it was nice being with extended family to experience Jackson's second Halloween...and really the first one that counted since last year he couldn't walk and had no clue what was going on!
I had a Giraffe costume planned but it was a little small and not nearly warm enough for the night. Luckily my grandmother had bought a pumpkin costume weeks prior for us. Turned out to be SUPER CUTE!
I wasn't sure how Jackson would react to this whole Halloween thing, but man did he catch on QUICK!
