Halloween Festivities 2011

We started our Halloween Season by going to Cornbelly's at Thanksgiving Point. It had some fun stuff, but I was glad I had coupons to make it a little more reasonably priced. Geddy really enjoyed all the bouncy houses and slides.

Scott had fun on them too, but none of the pictures of him turned out very well.

Who knew Batman could ride a "horse" and rope a calf?

Playing on the hay-bale mountain.

Not quite The Batmobile!

At night, parts of Cornbelly's becomes "Haunted". This giant monster bouncy tunnel thing was not supposed to be spooky during the day. So we went in. It was pitch black and had occasional figures light up and startle you. I am sure it was much scarier at night, but Geddy was not prepared for it. He was brave though and we made it through. Though now he says it was the scariest thing he has ever done.

You're wearing the wrong costume Geddy!

His tough-guy face!

Serious business, waiting for Trick-or-Treat maze to start!

The next few are his Batman poses!

My favorite - have to show off that cape!

This is him pursuing a bad guy!

Cute profile!

The cutest Batman ever!

Scoping out Payson Main Street Trick-or-Treating!

If only it were black - he thought it was close enough to a Batmobile to get his picture with it.

We accidentally stumbled upon Spanish Fork's Main Street Trick-Or-Treating. They had really cool statues along the way. This one was by the Police/Fire/Ambulance Station and was promoting Blood Donation!

This was Geddy's favorite. Like his pose? He is pretending that the monster is after him!

Our Vampire Cat jack-o-lantern. Geddy and Scott designed, I carved.

Spanky wasn't very impressed.

Geddy in his Halloween parade at school. They weren't allowed to wear masks, so we tried black face paint.

Geddy and his friend Wylee. They were on the same soccer team last year (her dad was their coach). So they were pleasantly surprised to be in the same kindergarten class. They often play Batman and Batgirl at recess.

Geddy and Azalea. Another girl who humors him by playing Batman with him at recess.

Ready for our traditional Provo Center Street Trick-Or-Treat. Geddy loves going from business to business getting all sorts of goodies. His favorite part though is looking at everyone else's costumes. He made sure to say, "Hi, Batman!" to every similarly clad kid he saw.

A vampire Batman?!

And Mom got to dress up for work Halloween night. Not having extra money to pend on a costume I went with stuff we had at home. Meanwhile Scott was at home taking Geddy on a more traditional Trick-or-Treating jaunt around the neighborhood. That was Geddy's favorite part of Halloween. The trick-or-treat streets were fun and easy candy, but his joy in running up to each door and saying "TRICK-OR-TREAT!" was the best.
