Play Guitar...

Halloween 2008

Riley was a monkey for Halloween this year! He was absolutely adorable! We went to Aunt Candace's house to go on a trick or treating hayride in her neighborhood! Riley did not mind his costume at all and he had so much fun playing with all the kids!

I had to include the shot from the back so you could see the banana!

Mommy and the Monkey!


Daddy and the Monkey!


The Hayride!


I am much happier riding in the car pulling the hayride!


As I was looking for pictures to add for Halloween this year, I happened upon pictures from last year! The difference is amazing!

What a difference a year makes!

We had our one year check-up last week and here are Riley's stats!
