Halloween!

Halloween!!! Yes - I just got in from handing out candy and trick or treating with Heidi - I'm dethawing and thought it would be nice to write a blog!

First some randoms... It turns out - Heidi has something in common with me - our love for BACON!!! Don't worry - it is at least reduced sodium bacon - but its delicious and Heidi enjoys it too...

Second - Heidi dresses herself on most days now - I'm always curious to see what she picks out. This Saturday - it was old green and white checkered capris, a blue flowered top, snow boats and her purple purse. She may not be a princess - but she sure knows fashion! :)

Onto Halloween!!!! We had pumpkin decorating fun on Sunday. Heidi wanted to paint her pumpkin and Chris had his own plan up his sleeve for his pumpkin.

The boys in their Halloween costumes - they kept them on all night and hung out in the driveway just fine.

Onto our little monster - Heidi!!! She was so excited to go trick or treating that she sat and played in the wagon for a good 30 minutes! Then finally she could get her costume on and YES the nose honks!


Heidi was really fun to trick or treat with. She was quite a character. We had a good time and are ready to enjoy the candy! Our neighborhood was crazy! Sorry we didn't get more pictures - I was busy walking Heidi around and Chris was handing out candy! But I like how they run Halloween around here - it is from 6:00pm to 7:30pm sharp - a cop is dedicated to each neighborhood and drives through every 10 minutes or so and at 7:30 - if you are still out - especially older kids - they make sure they go home and not let them walk around anymore. Plus everyone was out in their driveways having a good time. Its a nice mini festival around here! The old man handing out "adult" cider wasn't bad either. :)

Happy Halloween Everyone!!!
