Three's Company: Halloween

I have been a huge slacker when it comes to updating my blog! I feel like the month of October has been a blur of volleyball and I haven't had any family time! We had 2 big volleyball tournaments and the season is winding down with the girls playing in the state tournament this week. I must take a quick detour and brag about my team before I move on with this blog--This has been the first year we have played up in Division 1 with the really big schools and my team ranked 5th out of the top 16 teams that qualified for state. I am super proud of the girls and I am excited to see how far they will go in the state tournament. Ok--back to my blog now.... :)
This is the last official holiday of Jack's "firsts"! He was still cooking last year at this time. I remember sitting outside with Gabe handing out Halloween candy dreading having to dress someone up and take them trick or treating! ha ha! Luckily for us we just dressed Jack up in his costume, took a few pictures, and then let him run around outside.
We spent the evening at the Bauer's house where we joined the Putz crew along with Bea, Tom, Pat, and Al. It was fun to see the Putz girls get excited about dressing up and watching Ethan have a meltdown when it came time to put his costume on. Jack was a monkey (bought for him by his Nana Ceci) and he handled the costume pretty well. He didn't mind putting the outfit on (which was very thick and hot) but he kept wanting to take the head piece off. Eventually we just let him take the head off and run around in the monkey suit. He loved chasing after all the kids and spending the evening outside. It was a great night!! :)
