Halloween Memories

As a kid, Halloween was one of my favorite holidays. I blame the person who created this day for the incredible sweet tooth that I still carry with me. I absolutely love scary movies like '"oltergeist" which I am watching right now - petrified, even though I know the outcome. "Come into the Light! No, stay AWAY from the LIGHT!"

On this Halloween day, I visited the cast of the "Today" show for their annual costume reveal. This year, it was a Fairytale theme - Matt Lauer as Humpty Dumpty, Meredith Vieira dressed as the long-nosed Pinocchio, Ann Curry was a beautiful Cinderella, and Al Roker was a very tasty Gingerbread Man. There was so much energy coming from the crowd - most of them donning very creative Halloween outfits themselves. But, no one caught my eye more than this adorable little guy:

Dressed as a spider caught in a web, with mommy suspending him from behind in a baby harness, this ingenious costume won the "Today" show's top prize.

He didn't cry once, enjoying all the attention but really not knowing what all the fuss was about. Just give him his pacifier and all's good!
