Halloween Highlights

- Singing the Ghostbuster song at various times throughout the day

- Wardrobe malfunction: After hours (hours!) of cutting, gluing, plastering, sanding, and painting Chad's helmet, it cracked in 3 places after 10 minutes of wear. We went to plan B: taped a cake container to a cereal box (15 minutes). And I liked it better than the first one!


( Me to Chad: Now look like you just saw an alien!)
- Trying to fit in as much nutrition as possible at each meal

- Daylight trick-or-treating at the strip mall

- Screaming (kids), wailing (kids), and pleading to just smile and look at the camera (me)



- Ward Halloween Party

- Trick-or-treating: the real stuff


- Counting, organizing, and eating the loot

- Looking forward to eating candy for breakfast (or at least as an appetizer)

The kids costumes turned out way cute (My favorite has to be cute Sam, maybe because he is more delicious than candy itself!)It looks like it was a successful Halloween! Wish we could see you...
