Year 3, Day 214

We took a trip to York, SC today to visit Bush-n-Vine farm on the first day their pumpkin patch was open for the season. Miles was over-the-moon excited to dive in and start hunting for pumpkins. I, meanwhile, was excited to recreate a photo from my own youth. Be honest -- which one of us … Continue reading Year 3, Day 214 →

Year 3, Day 201

Mommy brings Miles a surprise from the store (a Halloween pumpkin) in three photographs.

Year 3, Day 173

Some days, Miles just wants to dress up like Superman and watch Superman. I'll never say no to it (and hey, it also means we can get a little more mileage out of last year's Halloween costume)!

Year 2, Day 248: Miles Martin’s TRUE Tales of Halloween Horror!

The winds and rain of a mighty storm rattled and shook the house this evening, guaranteeing that Halloween would not go according to plan. Little did I realize, however, just how little regard fate had for our holiday aspirations. Follow me, dear reader, if you dare, into the grim darkness of Halloween 2019. After arriving … Continue reading Year 2, Day 248: Miles Martin’s TRUE Tales of Halloween Horror! →

Year 2, Day 244

In the interest of maximizing Miles's Halloween (and the usage of his costume), Jaclyn booked a spot for him at an event held by Gymboree this evening. While we had initially planned on taking him to a trunk or treat on Saturday, this proved to be a much better alternative for him, primarily because it … Continue reading Year 2, Day 244 →

Day 248: Baby’s First Halloween!

Tonight, Miles got to experience his first night of Trick or Treating. Dressed once again in full Wicket W. Warrick regalia, Jaclyn carted him up and down our street, teaching him all about the socialized acquisition of chocolate. I can say with 100% certainty that Jaclyn was more excited about Halloween than Miles was, which … Continue reading Day 248: Baby’s First Halloween! →

Day 247

In an effort to get Miles into his Halloween costume as much as possible this week, we got him all dressed up and took him to the Great Elizabeth Pumpkin Wall, which is exactly what it sounds like. It was a nice, cheap way to celebrate the season (and close enough to the comic shop … Continue reading Day 247 →

Day 244

We're trying to get as much mileage out of Miles's Halloween costume as we can, so we stopped by my stomping grounds at Legion Brewing for their Trunk or Treat event today. Granted, it was mostly an excuse for mom and dad to get out of the house, but Miles was, as usual, a big … Continue reading Day 244 →
