Jax's First Halloween


Happy Halloween!!!



This Monday was Jackson's first Halloween and we had the BEST time!!!  We started at Ande and Pape's- visited Nana and uncle Wade and then headed to the Bowens for the evening :)  Getting into Ashford was a challenge... it is the PLACE TO BE on Halloween!!  Cars, kids, parents, golf carts, trailers and hay rides everywhere... its going to be so much fun years to come!







The Bowens, Mallorys, Clays, McCurrys and Chambers all gathered to eat, hand out candy and celebrate.  We decided to take the kids out to "trick or treat" at The Dorsey's house and the Whites.  We thought they were all a little to young to get the concept and we didn't want people looking at us like we were crazy trick or treating with 3 month olds and 1 year olds!  So we thought visiting friends houses would be the best bet... we could still enjoy and get pictures (LOTS).

It was an adventure to say the least!!!  So fun! 












Looking at dad... wondering what in the world is going on!!


Love this family shot... still holding his candy!

Waving at Cole and Drew :)


Not wanting to let go of his "treat" ha




We didn't quite make it to the White's house (too far and too cold). but the kiddos loved it, especially Addison and Caroline!  We even went to a few other houses on our way home... this poor man got to see us in full chaos mode!!  Ha, I'm surprised he didn't call DEFAX on us!  Luckily, we have an inside scoop on that thanks to aunt Lauren! 


 We all made it back in one piece and were able to enjoy some good food and fellowship!  We had yummy soup, snake sandwiches, dips, desserts... it was delicious!!  People were not too sure about my snake sandwiches but I have to say we didn't take any home so I guess they weren't too "gross" to eat ;) ha! 





I am beyond thankful for our amazing friends!!!  We are so incredibly lucky to have such an amazing group to experience these new adventures with!  I am looking forward to MANY more years of trick or treating with this gang!!!
