Happy November! English Bulldog Costume Happy November! English Bulldog Costume

Happy November! Can’t believe October is over already. I guess it was the really warm weather that made it feel like it wasn’t time for Halloween yet, but it went by too fast.

This year, Ruger was a skeleton. He was NOT happy about the costume at first, but he decided it was okay after wearing it a few minutes lol. Last year he was a Dallas Cowboy, the year before he was a pumpkin. I tried the pumpkin costume on him for this year, but it wouldn’t even button. He was only 40 lbs when he wore it two years ago and now he is 90 lbs….so he has grown a lot!

Happy November! Trick or Treaters in Texas

My favorite part of Halloween is all the trick or treaters we get! Our neighborhood is everyone’s go to in my area, so it’s like a party for all the kids. We have people park all up and down our road to walk the 2 miles around. Ruger loves them too! He sits out front while we hand out candy and just soaks it all in. We didn’t have as many this year since it was a school night, but it was still a good turn out!

Happy November! The out takes!

Here is some real life for ya….my husband takes the worst pictures of me lol. We were taking different photos during our weekend fall trip to the Texas mountains, and most of them look about like this. He never waits for me to pose or get into a position, so my mouth is open or I am squinting. I was digging through all the photos and found so many horrible ones lol. He takes good nature shots, but he definitely needs to work on people shots 🙂

      There were a few other costumes I wanted to get for Ruger…but he didn’t fit into any of them lol, so we stuck with this one. They have so many cute things out for dogs to wear!
