Halloween Pics 2009!

It’s Halloween time again… and of course we have our annual Halloween Costume Party! As I was getting all of my children’s costumes ready (one skin baby and 2 Fur Babies,) about a month before Halloween, I would dress each one up and take pics on my phone. I had to make sure the costumes fit and looked cute.. Then I would text message them to the people I think care as much as I do about my costumes, that I have searched for, mostly ending up on Ebay of course paying much more than they are worth, but well worth it.

With a big smile on my face my costumes are ready and complete and just waiting for Halloween!! That’s when I get a text message from my Mom, asking me if the poor dogs think I am a “nut case.” I laugh, realizing that eight years running I have dressed up my beloved Lab Dakota, and never has she made a peep, she happily plays along, no matter how she really feels, she trots along showing off her costume, just to please her “crazy” human Mommy. Then I think about my little boy and how at only two getting him to stay in his costume is a large chore. That is why having a dog(s) around is what everyone needs. When everyone around is asking so much of you, your dog is there to love you unconditionally no matter your “nuttyness.”

Here are some pics from this years Halloween party!! We had a blast, even if the dogs were wondering what was going on, so many items hanging off of each other to chase around and eat, but all in all it was a success.
