Oh, what a fabulous holiday. We began the day with pumpkin pancakes and lemon butter. Another new recipe that I’ll be sure to use again. It was delish. Then I spent the afternoon finishing Milo’s costume and rounding up some props for Dave and me to wear. I have to say, it all came together quite nicely.
Here we are. The bird watchers with our Rare Anders Owl. We used a photo from Milo’s shoot to make a mock bird book all about him!
Yeah, those binoculars are pretty sweet. I made them out of cardboard cones, spray paint and plastic glasses. Do you love Dave’s boots with tucked pants? He came up with that himself!!
Hmmm. Where might we see this rare owl…
We spotted him! It’s really quite appropriate because we do spend a lot of time Milo-Watching.
We attended a great couple’s costume party. The hostess is an event planner by trade, so you can imagine the details. It was awesome.
This is her husband…the cowboy, riding his inflatable bull. One of our favorite costumes of the eve.
Man, this kid doesn’t even need his mask to look like an owl!!
He grabbed this candy out of my hand. I figured oat cereal, sweet potatoes, orange flavored high fructose corn syrup…it’s all the same on Halloween:)
Here is our other favorite costume. A pregnant piñata with her 4 year old birthday boy husband. She tossed candy around with the fake hits. It was so clever.
You thought was kidding about the best costume winner. Nope. Milo took “Best All Around” at the party. I’m glad Dave finally gave in to him wearing a costume that required tights…it was great!!
