My Mamma

Happy birthday to my sweet Mamma today! I told her today that I remember when she was 29 and now she's...??? :) Love my Mom!!!

BOO!!

I have to admit...Halloween is not my favorite holiday. We had fun...the kids especially...but it's so chaotic with 4 little ones all hyped up on sugar!! :) The night before John picked out pumpkins with the kids and helped them carve them up. Molly chose a butterfly again this year and Jack created a spooky face all by himself. They had fun!! Halloween evening I got my 3 fairies and Obe-Wan-Kenobi all ready and out we went to join the crowd of about 70 kids from around the neighborhood. The kids all took on their own roles this year...Jack was the inpatient one ("hurry up Mom!")...Molly was the shy one (again)...Sophie was the clever one (she figured out right away that if she rode in the wagon the whole way she could feast on her candy)...and Macy was the social butterfly (walking the WHOLE way lugging her bucket saying "trit-a-tree" "tant too, bye-bye"). We ended the night with a yummy pizza party, a sprint home in the rain, and bags of candy dumped out onto the floor so Mommy and Daddy could "check" it!! :) Now it's on to Thanksgiving!!


The kids and their pumpkins...notice the biggest kid in the middle!
