Let the Halloween shenanigans begin!

What is it about Halloween and my inability to celebrate in moderation and thus not completely burn myself out by Monday, October 31st?!  We've already been to one pumpkin patch (his first preschool field trip! pics to follow) and we're off to another this weekend.  And we've been reading our two different versions of Five Little Pumpkins back to back just about every night since the month began.  Elias knows it by heart:


He embellishes here and there ("the first one says, 'let's run and run and...poop?'") and I can only assume he's picked up the hand gestures from preschool.  When people say this is a fun age, this is what they're talking about. I mean, really, we should all begin our days like this, regardless of how old we are. Don't you think?
