Halloween Hijinx

We took a very reluctant pirate to a local mall to trick-or-treat on Halloween. The Little Man got into his costume and underlying garb with a minimum of tears. He flat-out refused to wear the hat for most of the evening, though. So much so that I have only a series of ten blurry, uncentered photos to commemmorate the occasion. He didn't really get the concept of trick-or-treat - when one nice lady handed him the candy instead of plunking it in his pumpkin, he tried to hide it in a CD rack. He did, however, understand the end result because he begged us all the way home for Tootsie Rolls.

(I finally did catch him with the hat, but only from the side)
