Halloween Hooplah

The past week has been full of Halloween goodness.  We started the Trick-or-Treating last Saturday in Summit's downtown boutiques and bakeries and other shops of goodness.  It was cold and raining but the kids and I persevered.  Probably why I am still feeling like death today.  And to make matters worse, the monkeys repeatedly chose the tootsie rolls and dum-dums over the Butterfingers.  Even after all of my not so gentle prodding.  Seriously.  What a crock.

Yesterday was Ryder's preschool Halloween party.  Which I was in charge of.  Gross.  In the end though, I decided I like preschoolers.  You can do no wrong by them and they are a pretty gracious lot.  Linley came with me, and instantly fit right in.  Then again, she would probably fit in with a group of high school seniors.  Drama Queen Bee.

Today was our play group party at the church.  Again, fun.  I love little kids in costume.  Especially the boys.  They become invincible.  And Linley, well, she perfectly embodies her Drama Queen Bee-ness.  I will try to get some good shots of the kids before they head out to go trick-or-treating with daddy tonight.

And on another equally important note....Big fat huge thank you to Grandpa Z for coming out and further freshening up our home.  The new doors are such a pleasure, on the eye and temperature.  Thank you for working your butt off, freezing your butt off, and starving your butt off, all in the name of our fabulous, now less ghetto, home!!
