Julia's First Halloween

Julia spent her first Halloween at the Jackson's Halloween party! We had a great time with all of our friends and the Jackson's ALWAYS host the most fun parties.
Half of the party hosts......
The other half of the host with the most. This is your local dentist, Dr. Jackson, in his Mickey Mouse costume.
What am I, you ask? A geisha, of course. By this point, I had taken off my wig. Julia wore a red kimono and was a beautiful little china doll.
She spent her first Halloween night crawling everywhere in their house. She threw her hands up in the air about every 10 minutes to let everyone there know that she was, "So Big." Someone asked if we had to clap and cheer and say SO BIG every singe time she threw her hands up. The general consensus was that yes, the rule was to respond with great enthusiasm each and every time that she performed no matter how often. The Jackson's had lots of BALLS floating around, so Julia was pretty much in ball heaven.
Once, I rounded the corner and caught Julia and Emmy kissing in the hallway!

Sol with his Halloween Bubba teeth!

This story behind this picture was hilarious. We decided to get one good group shot of all of the kids. Well, I think it was a little late when we decided to give it a try so this is about as good as it got. Every kid was crying at the same time. All of the parents were laughing so hard that no one could even take a picture.

Low and behold, another Momma there had the brilliant idea to dress her baby up as a china man too! And no, we didn't plan it that way.
We had a great time and I know Julia will always remember her first Halloween!
