HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!
The day is finally here. I am hanging out at home giving out candy to the kiddo's and decided to squeeze a post in between the door bell. I am afraid I am going to run out of candy. I am not sure what I will do then. I would start giving my kids candy away but no one is home yet :).
I always opt to be the one who stays home. I don't know why in fact I don't know if I have ever taken the kids out? You know me I will always choose the warm house over the cold night. Actually we have great weather today. Not sure where it came from it snowed the beginning of the week and has been super cold but tonight is perfect trick or treating weather (just FYI it was also great weather for the football game today. Landon scored a great touchdown). I will never forget the year it snowed like crazy. Big huge flakes. Landon was a big furry dog that year and came home with a foot of snow on his head I swear. I am actually enjoying my time home alone. I have put away all the Halloween decorations, mopped the floor and moved the furniture around, (I seem to do that when the house is picked up, the family is away and I have decorating shows on. I start looking around the house thinking hum what can I change around).
We have partied big time this year. If we had to put our costumes on one more time I don't know if I could take it. It started last Saturday at Grandma Sue's Halloween party, then Sunday we had our own little party (pictures coming soon), Wednesday Trunk or Treat Ward party, Thursday kids school parade and parties plus I dressed up for Bonco that night, Friday Mike's work party and finally tonight. The crazy thing, everyone was something different for each party. Am I the only one who has kids that change costumes like they change clothes? Maybe I am too nice and I just let them but I have to say it gets old. Teegan was dead set on being a motocross rider. Of course I thought that was way to boring but finally gave in, then he changed to a football player, back to motor cross and threw in a vampire about 20 minutes before he went out tonight. Landon was a cheerleader, football player, cheerleader, caveman, football player. Whitney was a football player, caveman and ended up being a 80's workout girl with her friends. I guess as long as they are having fun.
Well, the kids should be coming in to dump out the candy and start shorting out all the good stuff.
Good news I have not run out of candy. Yet.
And I still say Halloween is one of my favorite holidays.
