Trunk or Treat at a nearby Community Church. I surprised Eli by dressing up as mommy bat. We couldn't capture a shot with both bats having wings spread.
Grammy surprised Eli by dressing up as the man-bear!
Eli was excited to see his cousin and buddy Zachary.
A couple of his favorite trunks decked out in Halloween digs.

Eli has really enjoyed spotting the different Halloween and Fall decorations on his way home each day. His favorite was a house nearby with a pumpkin head, scarecrow family. On one of our daily detours to drive past the pumpkin heads we noticed that Mrs. Pumpkin Head had lost her head. A few days later when we carved our Jack-O-Lantern, Eli really wanted to take it to Mrs. Pumpkin Head. I loved the gesture and he helped me carve another Jack-O-Lantern to take to the scarecrow family. |

The creator of the scarecrow family was very nice. He offered to assemble the head right away. Eli was excited about the process, but not so sure about touching the scarecrows or getting his picture taken with them. |

The little Pumpkin Head had a spot on the far side of the yard and Eli didn't mind giving him a closer inspection. We've had so many fun stories and questions about these Pumpkin Heads. He really wants to know why they bow their heads?? |
This plant is growing in one of our front stoop flower pots. It is doing better now than it did all summer and I wanted a picture to help me remember to get a replacement for the pot next year!
