Boo!

Happy Halloween! We've all come down from our sugar high, and a couple of us are a bit crabby today from the late-night festivities. But as Halloweens go, this one was a hit.

The weather was great for October 31, and the Nora and Owen were more than happy to put on their costumes and all the accoutrements (save a crown that lasted about 10 minutes -- sorry, Sharon!).

We started by hitting a few houses on the block with Daddy, then we all (Annie included) headed to Steve and Dana's neighborhood to trick-or-treat with Tattoo and Mr. Roarke. The temperature started to drop, and our pumpkins a bit heavy, so we made a pitstop at a neighbor's open house for "real" food and lots of room to run around.




At home, we had to take stock of our goodies, oh about a dozen or so times, before calling it a night. The loaded pumpkin was the first thing on our minds this morning, too. Like the good mom that I am, I'll try not to eat ALL the candy before the kids get home from Jan's. They won't miss a few though, will they?
Hope you all had a happy and safe Halloween!

They look AWESOME! I wish I could have seen them in person. Enjoy the candy, Mom and Dad ... I mean, Nora and Owen.
