Though Brantley was still a little young for trick or treating, we didn't miss the opportunity to dress him up for his first Halloween! Originally, I wanted themed costumes for our entire family. I bought Kinnick a hot dog costume and we were going to be the condiments: ketchup, mustard, and relish. But one, I didn't see the point of making costumes when we weren't going anywhere. And two, a condiment makes for a pretty boring first Halloween costume for B. So, I returned the hot dog (costume, not dog) and we scratched that. Maybe next year.
Instead, Brantley was a pumpkin and Kinnick a bat. Themed. Sort of. We dressed up for a few pictures, but to be honest, Brantley wasn't super fond of the pumpkin leaves in his face. Likewise with Kinnick and the wings. But he didn't have a choice.
We welcomed the trick or treaters for awhile and then headed up the street two houses for a firepit in the neighbor's driveway. Brantley enjoyed being around his friend, Dane (the dinosaur), who is just a few weeks older than he!
And that's how we spend Brantley's first ever Halloween.
