Welcome to the Reed Ranch!: Brayden's First Halloween!!!

What a fun day! Our little love bug, our little pumpkin', our little munchkin, our little sweetie pie was just the best TREAT ever!

David and Holly came down with Brayden and we had a great time... He has this new little seat they put him in to play.. isn't he precious? Love his outfit says I Love Mommy...

So did any of you figure out who

Brayden was going to be for Halloween......

Here's a clue....

We all got ready to head out to trick r'treat...

so Brayden's all decked out.. now can you tell who he is.....

Yep.. that's Brayden The Pooh!

Even Holly dressed up for the occasion... she makes an awesome Snow White!

We no sooner were ready to head out and of course..

Brayden falls asleep in his car seat:

Shortly after we took off to the Poway Midland Train Depo

where Jerry was volunteering as Engineer for the Halloween Event...

we had a great time!

Great family photo... except all you can see of

Brayden are his Pooh booties... oh well.

And Brayden's still sleeping after we got there....

somebody give this guy some sugar so he can wake up..

The park put on a great party... they had a few booths st up selling popcorn and cotton candy... and several more craft and game booths for the kids to enjoy.... here's a couple of darling kids making some ghost puppets...

It was so fun to see all the kids dressed up.. oh yes and many parents too... even Ghost Busters was there for the occasion... not sure how many they caught... but sure worked hard!

Not sure if this is Ms. Energizer Bunny..

but sure love the little baby bunny.... she was too sweet!

These are NOT people dressed up as Park Rangers.. they actually ARE Park Rangers... it's Bob and Suzanne Emery, our next door neighbors.. they are very active in the community.. Bob is on Poway City Council and was Mayor of Poway for many years... They both are retired school teachers.

These two were TWIN sisters....

bet they loved tonight when they didn't have to look alike!!!

I didn't want to ask.. but thought maybe this was

Bob Cracketch and Tiny Tim.. .or guess it's Tiny Tina...

Here's one of the Train volunteers...

Mr. Pumpkin-head was the Railroad cross guard...

Now this is a great disguise... doesn't he really look like a chihuahua ???

Two Little Bumble Bees.... lookin' for some Honey!

Here's a father-son team.. it was cute cuz the dad dinosaur

was teaching the kid dinosaur how to stretch his arms and growl

when someone took their picture... I escaped in just in time...

This cowboy was awesome.. he was wanted was to get on the train!

Here's one of the Train Conductors... she had a pretty rough night...

but never left her post helping kids onto the train...

Now isn't this the cutest witch you ever saw....

she kept asking "Witch Way is the Candy"????

Hey Evie.. I found you your Fireman.. and he's single too!!!

Jessie from Toy Story...think she was lookin' for Buzz or Woody...

We just kept waving to Jerry as he went around and around the park....

While we waited at the train station for our turn...

Here's a great family photo.. except I kept thinking I was in Disneyland..

Then finally Brayden got his turn ... in the Engine with Grandpa....

Before they took off we got this shot together...

notice we're already missing one shoe... oh dear..

All Aboard?

And they're off.. can you see Jerry "driving"... and he kept tootin' his horn too....

He really does have fun and glad to volunteer his time at the Station..

After their adventure Brayden wanted to wander into the new Depot where they have a gift shop with a gazillion Thomas the Train trinkets... Brayden loves Thomas.. well actually is favorite is Emily... xoxoxo
