Happy Halloween

We had a really fun filled day yesterday. I took the day off which was nice. Gracie had her School parade @ 9 so we spent the morning getting her all good and dead.
She went as a Corps bride.
She loved the makeup and her costume. I think she wore it all day yesterday.Here are the other girls in their Boo attire.
We are just ready to leave to drop Grace off at school.
We dropped off Gracie and then went to sit in the lunch room to wait for the kids to parade through.
Kunka and Mommy waiting.
Still WaitingLilly and Mommy Waiting.
Emily getting Tired of Waiting.After 45 mins they finally came through.
Here is Gracie's Teacher Miss BanksAnd here is Gracie. Spooky!! She hadn't seen us there yet.
Here she is seeing Lilly for the first time. Lilly wanted to go with Gracie but she couldn't. She had a really nice time at school. Lots of "stuff" to bring home. We had an hour before we had to go pick up Grace from school, so I ran home and got the other two girls in their costumes. Kunka was bunny.She looked so cute but didn't want to keep her ears on.Lilly's pumpkin costume turned out really fun. She loved it.You can tell by her smile.
After School we went to the baby sitters to show off their costumes and to get more "stuff". Then we headed into town to go to lunch with my friends from work and to trick or treat at my firm. After lunch we headed to the farm for free milk and to show the girls off to the ladies at daddys work. Then back home again for what I had hoped where naps. My kids were too excited for any of that. My niece Bayley came over and everyone got into their costumes and faces painted. We started tricks or treats around 6 and was out for a good solid hour.Emily stayed in the stroller where it was warm and Corps Bride, The Cat and the Pumpkin went door to door. Over all the girls were tired and happy when it was all over. Gracie cried on the way home from Grandmas. I asked why she was crying and she said, "I don't know." Yeah can we say T-I-R-E-D!! Lilly and Kunka feel asleep in the car and Gracie would have but she HAD to take a shower and get all that crap out of her hair and off her face. She wasn't happy about that. I also was very tired. I even had a sucker stuck to my shirt and I didn't even care (thanks to Kunka btw) Another Halloween is over...now I can tuck the costumes at the back of the closet and focus on Football and Thanksgiving.
I hope everyone had a very safe and happy Halloween.


**stupid joke of the day**
Q:Why can't Ghosts have Babies?
A:Because they have Hallow Weenies.
That was was for you, Jillie.

Wow, you needed a day off to rest from that day off! The girls all look great, loved the Corpse Bride look. Emily still remembers the great Hell's Angel look you came up with for her one year at the last minute, it was the best costume!
