HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

I hope everyone had a safe and happy Halloween. We had a blast! Thursday night we carved pumpkins - well, a pumpkin. My DF Nonya gave me this great idea that those carving kits were fun and easy so I decided that was the ticket. OMG! It took forever. The kids were so excited until I cut the tops off and told them to dig out the stuff. WHAT? YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING RIGHT? YOU WANT ME TO STICK MY HAND IN THERE? Even my sweet little girl who is not scared or grossed out by anything wouldn't touch it. So here are Tanner and Grace with spoons, the little carving knives and whatever else they could get a hold of trying to get the goo out without it actually coming in contact with their skin. It was fairly comical. I had to fling some on them a couple of times just to hear them scream. Mean, I know. CJ finished when he got home that night and it turned out pretty good.
We went to Shaunery's house for trick or treating. It's an annual tradition. She lives in a neighborhood that has only one street in and out and they block it off about 6pm. Our normal group - Wharton's, Blann's, Lobsinger's, Nonya & Co (just didn't seem right to put Burnette's?), Eric and Jayla (because Jen and Wes were at the track - lucky you!), Sylvia, Jane, a couple other people I did not know, Us, and Brian, Beth, Lily and Rye! WHEW! We had FUN, FUN, FUN! Can't wait until next year!
