Halloween

This cute little boy is my nephew Dallin. I made him this spider costume in 1998. The spider costume made a encore appearance on Isaac this year. The strings and extra legs really bugged him but I thought it was cute.

I made him a really big trick-or-treating bag, but he didn't actually get any candy this year.We had fun at Red Butte Garden After Dark where I made a witch's broom.

We also painted a pumpkin. That is a very puffy vest, but also it is true that I'm pregnant and not just trying to sneak out with an extra pumpkin.I've made some movies of Isaac with his favorite past times: reading and singing. He really is smart.

You'll notice that he seems to keep checking on his dad to make sure he's still reading the paper too. He makes little comments about what he's reading, just like his dad and mom. It seems like he's mostly interested in the ads, but that's because we won't give him the news sections because they get his hands too dirty.

Besides books and magazines, Isaac's favorite toy is string. He's kind of bugged that this particular string has a totally lame wooden dog attached to it. He "flosses" his teeth with the string and winds it around his neck - SCARY - so he has to be monitored with string all the time. He's so nice to smile so big when I get the camera out.
