Happy Halloween !



I took the girls (minus Katie) Trick or Treating last night. Bryce had to work and his bah-humbug of a boss wouldn't let him switch his hours to take them. I told him I was going and that I'd work later in the evening, I really didn't give him a choice (yes I know, nasty....) I wasn't going to let them miss another Halloween) They missed last year because I had given birth to Katie a few days earlier....





We carved our pumpkin... well, Mommy carved it. The kids chose the eyes, nose and mouth and helped a bit. I wanted to avoid an ER visit because our kids are what we call "clauds".... full of mishap, clumsy, etc. We didn't want to let them alone with a knife ! Then we went Trick or Treating in a friends neighborhood.

They had a BLAST. AnnMarie was Darth Vadar, she's a huge Star Wars Fan. I got her the mask, cape, and of course the loud, annoying light saber thingy. She loved it, and couldn't wait to wear it.

Nicolette was Ariel, with the wand, and pertie make-up and all (she was sure to tell me how much she LOVED make-up, oh boy!) Camryn was Tigger, she even wore the hat/hood that came along with it. She was the cutest.....At first she wasn't sure, she was shy and AnnMarie would grab candy for her and put it in her pumpkin....then, after she realized that she says "Trick Or Treat" and they give her chocolate, she was all about it. She'd go up, right at the door, be first in line and say Happy Halloween and trick or treat, then she'd leave saying "thank you for my num-num's". I loved it, and laughed all night at her excitement and antics. The other two were pro's, Nicolette said Happy Halloween to everyone and continued to talk their ears off :) AnnMarie was quiet all night, she was having a "down" day (those of you familiar with BiPolar will understand), but she seemed to enjoy herself.


Katie stayed at home with Daddy, she hasn't been sleeping well and she had fallen asleep before we left and there was NO way I was going to wake her. It's good, because it was a bit chilly.

They came home with 3 pumpkins FULL of candy, and not the cheap stuff either. These people were giving out mini bags full of candies, and full sized candy bars. They definitely have a stash....

Hope you guys had a nice Halloween as well, send me some pics of the kids !!!!
