Hallelujah Harvest

Well another Hallelujah Havest has come and gone. I have to admit this was my favorite year by far. It was so relaxed and easy. Everyone seemed to be having a good time. I want to thank all of you who helped this year. Especially the guys who came up after church to help set up. And thank you to their wives who gave up that family time for them to go. We couldn't have done it without our hundreds of volunteers! Thank You!

So Cody hated his costume! My mom brought him up to the church for the event with him in one arm and the costume in the other. Chris and I had to manhandle him into the outfit. He sobbed the whole time. Once he had it on, he was ok, just don't try to put the hood on! He didn't really get the whole idea of trunk-or-treating, but he did get the idea of candy. I would tell him "Just one piece of candy" and he would look and me and go "Twoooo?" It's the only number he knows. Good thing he doesn't know ten. :) So here are the only pictures we got this year. Here's to better luck next year.

How cute - I love that he already knows how to bargain with you. He looked adorable as a little monkey. We had a great time and we know how hard you worked to pull it all off! Thanks for the great time.

Everyone said you did SUCH a great job, Jessica. I am so proud of you and how well it went over!!! We were SO bummed to miss it....Next year!!! Cody looked so cute. We've had years like that early on about the costume-vetos! My friend Judy put a post on her blog a few days ago - her son did the same thing. She took a hilarious picture of him throwing a fit in his costume! So you aren't the only one! :)

Oh Cody looked adorable in his Monkey costume even though he didn't want to wear it. :) -V

Grayson had a lion costume 2 years ago and he wasn't thrilled about having it over his head-but maybe that was becasue of the mane!

Anyways, he looked cute as a button. As long as he had a good time!
