HALLOWEEN

Can I just say I LOVE Halloween!!! It is such a great time of year...I love the crisp weather, the fall leaves, and all the fun with family! This year the kids were a theme, probably the last year I'll get them to do that, and it was really cute. Isaac was a Knight...Abbie was the princess...and Kaden was supposed to be the dragon but, once he saw that Isaac was a Knight, that's what he wanted to be. So, I have 2 Knights to protect the princess. It was really cute. Our new neighborhood was fantastic for Trick-or-Treating. It was so much fun to see all the neighbors, the kids had a great time, and we even got to go to some spooky houses. The kids weren't fazed at all by the scary ones. Yeah, no crying children. Most of the houses were decorated so darling with one house having amazing carved pumpkins. That's the other thing we did yesterday, we took the pumpkins that we grew in our garden and carved them. Reed did two since we had so many pumpkins. The kids did a great job. Abbie carved a ghost, Kaden wanted a cat, and Isaac did an amazing dragon. He wanted a dragon because he had one on his Knight costume. Isaac,you did a great job, and Reed had to help him only a little bit. After we had gone trick-or-treating for a little bit, Jennie, John and Rian caught up with us and we finished the last few houses. We then watched the old movie Arsenic and old Lace. It was fun to see an old Halloween Movie. Then the kids went to bed...when we went to tuck Abbie into bed her candy bucket was in the bed next to her. We had to convince her that the best place would be on the table in her room. So cute...I am sure they dreamed of candy all night. They loved Halloween and I hope they always love it as much as I do.
