Macsen got to participate in so many fun Halloween activities this year - something we would have never dreamed possible a few months ago! He went on a field trip to a farm with his class mates. It was a strangely hot day and he suffered in the 90 degree heat but he still got to pick his own pumpkin, go on a wagon ride, and learn how to milk a cow. His teacher and staff at his school are wonderful and had ice water and a pull wagon ready for when he needed it.
He also went to his sisters fall festival at their school and played all those nostalgic fall fest games I remember - fishing over a shower curtain - a tug telling you your empty clip was now holding a bag of candy; bowling, ring toss, and the cake walk. He went on another wagon ride with his dad and played in the bouncy house.
We also went to Spooky in the Park - an annual Halloween celebration in Enterprise - with free inflatables and a costume contest. He did his best - and charmed the heck out of everyone with his Spiderman impersonations. His sisters won for their original costumes and shared the spoils with him.
And then he got to trick or treat. We carried him almost all night - he was so tired after a full day at school- but he was so sweet. Every house we went to he would find something to compliment " I like your pumpkin!" The neighborhood we visited was wonderful and had a hospitality tent of sorts with water and Gatorade, goodies and corn dogs. He loves corndogs and blue Gatorade so he was in heaven.
When we got home he went through his bag and gave most of his candy away to his sisters or to help refill the bowl outside for other children. He only wanted to keep the kit kats.
