Halloween

Sorry the picture is a little blurry but they were running. This is Kristian and Ivy trick or treating. Yea I did say trick or treating! You may or may not know that as of 2 days before Halloween, Kristian was NOT going trick or treating, he was not dressing up, and he did not like candy.
So the story starts. . . . Kristian has decided that he is going to be a Blue Man for Halloween. One of the guys from the Blue Man Group. I understand that this is a adult music group, but Kristian does not. He loves them and there was no talking him out of being a Blue Man. (If you do not know who they are, you had better google them so that you understand the costume) I got a couple bald caps and some face paint. A couple days before Halloween I put the cap on him to see what I was going to have to do to make it work. I guess that kinda freaked him out, because from then on he was not going to dress up. He said that he just wanted to be 'nothing'. I took him to my moms school for the parade so he could see other kids dressed up and he thought that they were cool but he was still not interested. In fact them more people that asked him about it, and everyone did, the more he was not going. So when he got up from his nap on Friday I put him in his football jersey and we headed to my parents. My brother David came over with his kids to see if Kristian had changed his mind and he told them that he was still not going. The kids decided to start across the street and Kristian and I sat on the porch to watch them. They had just got across the street when he yelled 'hey wait guys, I'm coming too!'. He had a ton of fun and loved it. He even made sure that he got plenty of thank yous in. All in all we had fun, but I was not sure we were going to make it this year.
