on the hunt...

for candy.

and kick balls.

and leaves under Daddy's Honda.  {yeah - I don't know either...}

R-O-A-R!!

Asher's a tiger for Halloween this year!

I don't think any costume {ever} will top last year's lobster - but we had to try.  :-)

As a side note, I have to say that this is seriously the best costume design I've seen.  It's from Carters and is fleece pants and a zip-up hoodie style top.  It is really easy to put on and feels like regular clothes, so Asher doesn't fight it.  Plus there's the huge bonus of him being able to wear these tiger pants all winter.

And he will.  Yay!

What better way for a tiger {and his candy pail} to get around than in his favorite wagon.

We don't have trick-or-treating until tonight, but there's no telling if Ash'll be up for it, so we went on a walk to show off his cute self in the afternoon.  :-)

While taking these shots, I learned that trying to photograph a tiger isn't easy.  Much like little boys, tigers enjoy running around and facing the opposite direction of any cameras that might be in the area.  This being the case, I had to take some tips from hunters of old - I baited the tiger and waited for the ambush.

My bait?  A Halloween pail with cookies in the bottom.

Come quick!  We caught one! 

Mom, there are cookies in here!

Dad, did you see these cookies?!

Yeesh - maybe we should have dressed him up as Cookie Monster.  oink oink.

Hope you all have fun with your little tigers {and monsters and princesses and farm animals} today!
