Boo(ts)!



We've had continued rain in Humboldt County. I got Iver a pair of rain boots on ebay and now he won't take them off! He loves being able to put them on himself (sometimes they are on the wrong feet), and likes to don them indoors, too (which we discourage).  It and his rain jacket are everyday wear now.



On Saturday, the boots went to "Boo at the Zoo" at the Sequoia Zoo in Eureka, where we met Kellie, Mark and Lincoln to visit the animals (and Halloween-themed decor, including tombstones for extinct animals!).  This is about as festive-Halloween-y as I get.








Red Panda! (many animals were given pumpkins to nibble on)

Milking the goat!

We played at next door Sequoia park, where he got scared out of his wits by a boy in a wolf costume going down the slide. He keeps saying, "Wolf, AAAAH!"

Today, the boots went to Costco to visit the giant bears!


We had a brief break in the much-needed rain Sunday afternoon to take Pepper for a stroll (with Iver wearing his raincoat and boots, of course). 

On Monday, Iver's daycare had a parade and potluck, so kids were encouraged to dress up.

We both aren't Halloween-lovers, but had some random outfits we tried on in the morning. 

Bear hoodie from our trip to Big Bear last year!

Frog hat (he didn't care for the jumpsuit) and "Boo!" tee.

Yoda (leftover costume from last year's Oscars party!)

This is the one he wore to school.
 

Happy Halloween (thankful to be on call!). I'm dreading the years when Iver will actually be into dressing up into something creative and into candy. Ugh.
