Halloween 2009




We had a great Halloween. A few nights ago we went to a trunk or treat party at our church and tonight we took the kids trick or treating. The weather was perfect and the moon was out. The kids had fun with glow sticks that Joe bought for them. They took turns ringing the doorbells. Danny always said "Happy Halloween" to the givers of the candy, it was so cute. He wore this dragon costume last year and wanted it again, we added face paint this time. Natalie was a black cat, and Wilford was Robin hood. I was proud of Wil's costume, yes, I made it. I can be handy. At one house a man scared the kids so bad that we just forgot about the candy and ran. He came out in a swamp monster costume growling and coming at Wilford. Wil was truly terrified. I thought it was a little too much for little kids, but then at the next house Wil did his best to scare the person who opened the door. I guess he got over it and wanted to get in on some Halloween fun too. The kids also loved handing out candy to other kids after we got home.

This is what we have been up to...


I got "The Boot". Six weeks with that thing!


We took the kids to a train museum,

Joe went to Japan for three weeks,
the kids all got really sick while I was away on a trip. Joe did a great job handling it on his own. they are finally getting over it.
