Enough Tricks, Here's a Treat for Everyone.


I know I haven't put up the Halloween pics yet. You're about to see why.

We had another successful Halloween this year. The girls were: Chloe- a cheerleader, Talisha- a Spider Bride, and Cara- a pirate. Little Tyler was a leopard, though he was called many other things. When it came time for trick or treating we only covered two streets. It was enough for the girls, and with candy from two trunk or treats and a carnival, it was enough for me too. Luckily the rain held out for us. While we were out we came across someone on stilts with a scream type mask on. Talisha, our thrill seeker, walked up to him and shook his hand with no problem. Chloe was happy with just being on the same side of the street as him. Cara wouldn't even look at him when we went to him. Later, and across the street, Cara would say boo and growl to "scare him". That night we went to a friends for a BBQ. All in all a good night




Earlier that day we watched Chloe walk in her school parade. She had fun. But it didn't sound like they did much else except watch a movie. Which is weird if you ask me.




Now for Saturday. Tyler had the weekend off and we weren't able to go to Idaho, so we painted the livingroom. I liked the color scheme we had. It just made the room darker and with our set up, it was dark enough. So we made the trim white again and then walls are a minty green. Look we even had a helper. So after all of this, we spent Sunday as a recoup day.

Cute and fun! And good for you for helping paint the livingroom! ;) Last year the kids didn't do anything really at their school for Halloween either. I was annoyed, too. This year they all did some kind of party in class. But, to participate in the costume walk/Fallfest, you HAD to donate $5/person to the Diabetes Assoc.! That's ridiculous if you ask me! Part of every class had to stay inside (not getting to wear their costumes) while the rest of their class got to go outside and do fun stuff. Didn't seem very fair to me :S. I'll post more on my blog soon... But, it looks like you guys had a good day and everyone's so adorable! Li'l T's teeth are HUGE!!!
