Courtesy of his grandparents (a darling faux suede jacket and "Little Rancher" shirt from Grammy and Papa, aka "The Michigan Grandparents," and an absolutely adorable miniature cowboy hat and matching boots from Grandma and Grandpa, aka "The Springs Grandparents"), Blanden had all the makings to celebrate his first Halloween in true Western style.
He wore the "getup" today for his first Halloween party. His music teacher, Miss Carrie, invited the class to dress up for Halloween, and almost everyone took part (the babies, not the parents ;) ). And he even received his first bag of Halloween treats -- no, not candy, but an adorable plastic child-size pumpkin bowl and matching silverware.
Blanden will be dressing up again on Friday to visit Dad's office and greet trick-or-treaters at the door. (Next year, he'll participate in the actual trick-or-treating.)
