A Weekend of Parties....

This past weekend we celebrated Tolido's first Halloween! We dressed him up in a pumpkin costume - the cutest pumpkin I've ever seen - and trotted him off to a neighborhood hayride. He and Daddy got off at every stop and gathered more loot and he never stopped. He absolutely LOVED running around with the big kids. Next morning we were off to see a horse show for Mommy's birthday. Tolido could get right up next to the chain link fence of the arena. There were two jumps close to the fence and each time a giant horse would land off the jump just feet from him his eyes would light up and he'd giggle. He seemed to love the sound of a horse neighing and would try to mimic each time he heard it. He didn't seem to understand that a horse could run him over as he chafed at having his hand held... Then it was off to Wurstfest that night for some sausage eating and polka dancing. Uncharacteristically, he wasn't having much luck with the little ladies but he never stopped trying! He settled for dancing with Mommy and Daddy. He loves music but he really loves LIVE music... thus, he was in his element. Early the next morning it was time to get suited up in his tuxedo for a wedding. He was a quiet little angel during the ceremony and found a jukebox at the reception. ...but he wouldn't kiss the bride and wasn't too interested in a hug either. Guess he was fed up with girls! :)
