halloween

Remember when Halloween was just one day? You wore your costume to school, had a little school party, came home, rushed through dinner so you could hit the pavement, trick or treated in a plastic costume with a plastic mask (that always seemed to break and then you were just a kid in a big winter coat asking for candy), came home and traded candy with your siblings, and then desperately tried to go to bed filled with sugar and a little bit of fear from the big kids' spooky costumes.
 
Now Halloween is a month long fiesta. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy doing fun things with my girls, but Halloween is not my favorite holiday and I certainly don't need it to last a month. Finally....FINALLY Halloween arrived and the girls got all dolled up and went out for treats. We had our traditional chili dinner and Missi, Amy, Tom, Bella and Brayden joined us for trick or treating.
 
It was a cold night and I was shocked the girls stayed out as long as they did. They came home with some good loot!
