Halloween Happenings....

Last Friday, October 24th, my work had a Halloween Party for the kids/family.  Nyles was so excited to wear his costume.  I had gone to a couple places looking for a Halloween Costume earlier in the month, but every time I asked Nyles to try one on he would say "No, no."  So finally after a few times and no luck, I asked him what he wanted to be for Halloween and he said "Tractor."  So I looked around on Pinterest and found you could make one out of a box.  It seemed simple enough, so I showed Steve the picture and asked him to make it.  We used one of his diaper boxes and wallah, we had a tractor!  Steve said Nyles wanted to try it on the whole time during the car ride up to my work.  Here are some pics from my work party:

Farmer Nyles w/ his tractor and bucket


Playing some bowling

Going down the Spook Alley for candy

Nyles wanted to keep wearing his tractor after we got outside.  
It was a beautiful day too!


He even sat down to watch the water fountains for a while



Taking a break on the way to the car


On our way home we stopped to help Dave unload the trailer, so Nyles pretended to drive the Tahoe.  He loves to "drive." 

Last night, October 31st, we went over the to Lake's House in Draper for dinner and trick-or-treating with cousins.  It was a lot of fun.  It was Nyles official first time to Trick-or-Treat.  Last year we did a Trunk-or-Treat.  He did pretty well.  He thought it was fun to get candy, but mostly wanted to eat the candy after getting it.  After a few houses he sat down on a bench and said, "Done."  Conor was a house in front of us and was done too, so we went back.  It was after 7pm by then, so we packed up our stuff and headed home a little while after.  Here are some pics from the evening:
