Halloween 2008

We went home to hang out with family and friends for Halloween this year.  It was so fun.  Kelly and I drove up Thursday, and I dropped her off at her SIL, Jason took the train up Friday night.  Oliver was a peapod (the cutest peapod EVER!), Jason and I dressed up as mandarins, so our theme was fruits and veggies.  For those of you who don't know, Jason's dad has a mandarin farm so his sisters would wear these costumes when they sold mandarins, in case you were wondering, "where the heck do you get a mandarin costume?"  Friday night we went to our friends Chris and Megans.  Jason wasn't in yet so my sister Chrissy wore his costume.  It was lots of fun to see friends and catch up. Saturday Jason and his Mom hung out (at local bike shops, Jan is a good sport) while I went and saw High School Musical 3 with Letty, ummmm...we LOVED it!  I swear I am a 17 year old stuck in a 25 year old body, in 17 days it will be a 26 year old body. That night we headed to Austin and Ashleys for another Halloween party, where we had fun doing karaoke (I don't know how much everyone else enjoyed listening to us).  We got to spend lots of time with my parents and Jason's, it was great.  Ollie got tons and tons of attention.  He is such a good little baby, I love him so much.  He just goes with the flow and makes being his parents so fun!
Ok, Ollie rolled over the other day!  It took him like five minutes to get out of this position and it hasn't happened since so I kind of think it was a fluke.  I almost cried because 1. my baby is getting big and 2.  I am really scared for him to become mobile, then my job gets a lot harder :)

First, Ollie is so freakin' cute in his peapod costume! I can't wait to see him at Thanksgiving (hopefully I do see ya). Second, I TOTALLY loved HSM 3. I went to see it with Jill and my mom. I am a 16 year old stuck in a 27 year old's body I swear. I really love that kind of stuff for some reason. Anyway...cute pics!!
