Halloween - Part 2...

After our mom's group party we went to Ben's work, were they had a Halloween party for all the kids. Lizzie was so excited to see daddy so early in the day (it was a little before 4pm) and I think had the most fun wandering around and going crazy at daddy's work. She decorated a pumpkin and went trick-or-treating around the whole office. She got so much candy here it was insane. Her pumpkin was so heavy she kept dropping it or falling over because she was so lopsided. ;) And of course she wouldn't let daddy carry it at all first, after all it was "my pumpkin", but after the 5th time dropping it she reluctantly handed it over only in exchange for a lollipop.

Ben dressed up too, he was the spy from the Team Fortress 2 game (the orange box from Valve), but if you didn't know the game you'd probably just think he was some elaborate bank robber. I guess he freaked out the finance department at work pretty good. But if you did know the game he was an exact representation of that character. Everyone at work loved his costume. It was pretty crazy, the winner of the best costume at his work got a PS3, and Ben was ahead all day except for the final hour were he only lost by 7 votes. He was so bummed, he wanted to win so bad. Oh well, maybe he'll win one at the Christmas party next month. We have to win one though... there's no way we're paying $600 for one and I really want to play Ben's games. It's so sad we have 2 games now for that system and no way to play them... I really don't know how long Ben would want to play the games he worked on anyways though, so it's really not that big of a deal.
