Every evening in the month of October we went on an expedition. After bath time Will would get dressed in his PJ's grab a hat of some kind, his binoculars and sometimes his camera or a "treasure map" (which is whatever piece of paper he had been carrying around that day and we would head out on an expedition...
What an explorer!
Here is what we were exploring - the blow up pumpkin in the yard across the street.
Jared and I just laughed every night when we had to get all geared up to go out in the front yard to look across the street. We were also reminded of the little joys of childhood, it's so wonderful that Will was that excited about a blow up pumpkin.The pumpkin first made its appearance in the beginning of October. As soon as Will saw it he said: "Okay, I go inside and put my costume on and we go trick or treating." We kept trying to explain to him that it wasn't trick or treating time yet and he kept arguing with us and telling us he needed to get his costume. Very exasperated he looked at Jared and I said: "We need to get Nana!" He knew that if we wouldn't listen and do what he wanted Nana would. Good logic Will!
