Halloween Party

John had his first school party last week.  He was very excited to wear his Sir Topham Hat costume and just couldn't wait for his party.  I had wanted to make some cool cupcakes or some other kind of sugary treat as I have been saving recipes and ideas for a couple of years for just this kind of event (school party, not necessarily Halloween).  But I am not supermom and just couldn't muster up enough energy to make a couple dozen cupcakes 10 days after giving birth.  I look forward to putting my ideas to use for another party.

The party was the standard school party.  They had a craft, snack, and played games for candy.  They also had a costume parade where all the kids could show off their costumes.  A good time was had by all...even little Anders.

 John was trying to cover every square inch of his door hanger with Halloween stickers.

 This is one of his teachers, Miss Melodie.  I think she often finds herself sitting next to John and holding his hands.

This was the first time John put his whole costume on.

When he found the mirror he was very pleased with what he saw.

Anders pretty much slept through the whole thing.

Game time!

John really enjoyed his first school party and was excited to learn that he will have another party this month and next month.
