Happy Halloween!

Well, once again I had to work today.  It was another pretty steady day of snotty noses and coughs sprinkled with a UTI here and there just to keep it interesting!

I unfortunately missed the kids trunk or treat event at church, but Grandpa sent photos to me so I could see what they were up to.

After work we all met a Taco Bell for dinner and then we ran home and headed out to go house to house for trick or treating.  The kids were having no part of not going house to house!!  We immediately were bombarded by swarms of mosquitoes and had to pour on the bug spray to keep from being eaten alive!!!  Terrible that it is the end of October and we are still fighting off the little blood suckers!!!

Once we were all protected we started down the street towards Grandma and Grandpa's house hitting every house on the right side of the road with a porch light on.  They were in rare form, especially Schnooky.  He was running all over the place and hollering nonsense!  So funny!  Missy was doing her best to keep up with her "bruders".  At one point I was carrying Missy and hers and Schnooky's bags of candy!!  I had to pass her and the candy off to Daddy at one point cuz I was just plum tuckered out.

Missy was so cute when we were walking down the street.  Every time she saw her shadow she would say, "look mommy there's my Tinker Bell shadow".  She just loves Tinker Bell and she was dressed up in a little flower costume that she calls her Tinker Bell costume, so of course she would see a Tinker Bell shadow!

We got to Grandma's just before 8pm and they dove into the candy.  Daddy and I headed home shortly thereafter with the Noni girl so Daddy could get to bed early as he had to leave at about 0400 for work the next day.

All in all a fun night was had by all and then to all a goodnight!!!

Unfortunately, Peanut missed all the festivities as he was working until 11pm.  Just glad he is getting some hours at work this week.  He needs the money for sure and needs to save it and not spend every dime he gets 2 days after he gets it!!!  Money management is definitely not his thing, but he needs to get it together cuz we won't be there to save him forever!!!
