Happy Halloween!

Teddy's first Halloween! On Saturday the 29th we walked down to the La Grange Halloween Walk. Whoa. A million kids and parents trick or treating from business to business. There were so many people that there was a line winding all through downtown.



Teddy had two costumes. His first was a monkey costume given to him before he was born from everyone at Eire. They really wanted us to have matching costumes. Me in my mom's 50+ year old hand made monkey costume and Teddy in his monkey costume. Unfortunately with Steve's injury he couldn't bring Teddy down to my office. My monkey costume stays at the office in a drawer and comes out each Halloween for our office costume contest. It took me a few years but I have won best costume for the past two years.

Teddy's second costume came from Aunt Kathleen (Jessica's sister). She got it at a used clothing sale and could not resist. It was a perfect fit.



When I got home from work I took Teddy in his giraffe costume to Grandma and Grandpa Swards and Grand Daddy and Grammy. They loved him.

Teddy also picked out a pumpkin from the farm stand on 31st street.
