Happy Halloween!
This year we had a little Scooby Doo (C) and a vampire who looked a bit like Freddy Munster (Ky). C loooooves all things Scooby. I think he has a crush on Daphne. I tried to talk Ky into being Shaggy or Fred, but he was set on being something "scary" this year. We chose vampire (so original I know). He did NOT want to sit still for makeup so we didn't quite get his whole face finished. He was still pretty adorable - I mean scary. Grammy C and Grandpa F came down to watch the fun. We didn't carve our pumpkins until Halloween day. C wanted scary and Ky went with the ultra-classy "puking pumpkin". Gross - for sure, but it was a hit with all of the trick-0r-treaters. K did a great job decorating the front yard so our house was pretty popular... fog spewing pumpkin, ghost lights, orange porchlight, giant spiderweb, and a battery-operated bat with glowing eyes that flew in circles around the porch all night. The boys had a great time walking around our very busy neighborhoood collecting their loot. We usually meet up with friends, but went solo this year. It was too hard to keep us last year with the big kids running from house to house, while C was practically getting left in the dust. It was nice to get some quality time in with K's mom and dad too since we won't see them again now until March or so. They are leaving early for Arizona this year. The boys will miss them! Anyway, despite having a cold that just won't quit - I had a lot of fun. It was a great Halloween!
