Our Little Fighter

Since Kanyon's birth and with all that he has been through people have talked about what a fighter he has been and still is. So, when we were trying to decide what he was going to be for Halloween, it only made sense to let him be a fighter...a boxer to be exact. So, I whipped up a little costume...terrible quality....like sing song costumes (look good from a distance, but pretty rough up close and not guaranteed to last very long). It made it long enough for pictures and then it got cool enough we had to put clothes on him. But we kept the black eye all night.

"Coming out of the red corner in the gold trunks weighing in at 12 pounds with an undefeated record, fighting for the heavyweight title............ THE GRAND KANYON!!!"



We went to our trunk or treat at church. By the time we got there, he was pretty sleepy. His "boxing gloves" are socks stuffed with Kleenex and his black eye is black eye shadow. Check out this tough guy...
Once the sun started going down we had to put clothes on him. Here he is snoozing with Addison (with Chris) and Blake the giraffe (with Mark). Dads were on baby duty while moms passed out candy.

Here we are with Mindi and Addison the sweet little lady bug. She got to put her costume ON when it got cooler...it was too warm when the sun was out. So..they weren't dressed up at the same time. Oh well. I think they'll get over it.
This is Becky and Charlie Brown (Caleb). Caleb was Kanyon's first slumber party buddy. When Caleb was born he had a blood sugar issue so he was in the NICU for a night.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
