Ghosts, Goblins…and Spiderman?

Filed under: Just Me, Parenting and Family (photos) — dawn @ 11:48 pm

We had a fairly “successful” night…or so my children would say. Eldest is at the “I dont want to dress up, but I want candy” phase, but she went to a friends house for a little Halloween party. Youngest decided that he wanted to be Spiderman.

The “returns” are in and I think that both of my children “stashes” weigh in at a healthy (?) 10 lbs each. I didnt actually weigh them on a scale, instead I used the “it feels like about 10 lbs of candy” mothers scale. This year, the little mice that…um, occasionally eat a piece of candy or two, will have to go on a diet though, as their bags are full of chocolate, a migraine sufferers nightmare.

Now, it is time to change decorations, for the next holiday. I misplaced the little fall flag though and it will take some time, I fear to find it. (or I will just get another one, as they are on sale this week at the craft store) I didnt put to many decorations for Halloween, and the decorations that I did put out can stay for Thanksgiving, I do have some new decorations for Thanksgiving though, and I really do look forward to dressing the place up a little for the holidays. I also need to de-clutter, or in other words…move the boxes to the basement. If I havent unpacked them by now, they are probably not going to be needed right away, and I can take some time to look through them and determine where things are going to go. It is so nice to have a basement :)

Well, the alarm is due to go off in a couple hours, so I best get some sleep.

Laters all
