One Year Ago...

Eli was placed in my arms.  Need I say more???

Halloween!!!!

I have never really been into Halloween but this year I was really looking forward to it.  I couldn't wait to see Eli's reaction to all of the decorations and not to mention that this kid is such a goof, he LOVES to dress up and act silly!  So, I went all out and bought him two costumes!!    In the day time we went to Belmont Shore which is a beach community in the city of Long Beach.  Every Halloween they have a doggie costume parade followed by trick-or-treating for the kids.   For this event, Eli was dressed as a zoo keeper.  In the evening we went trick-or-treating around the neighborhood with my sister and her friend.  For the evening festivities Eli was decked out as a little puppy.  As we went door to door, Eli so kindly invited himself into to homes of whomever would answer the door!  So cute!!

Giving his cheese face in the doggie boutique.

Blowing kisses to mama!

Using the doggie water ramp as a stage.  He was definitely a hit!

Cuddly puppy!
