Halloween 2011



Halloween this year was a bit of a gong show. We had big plans to go to the movies as no one was trick or treating. We heard from Craig mid-afternoon and he advised that he wasn't going to be home until 8pm. So a new plan was made and Kaedo decided he really did want to go out halloweening. So, at 6:30pm, we joined the neighbors and made a loop around our neighborhood picking up treats. The kids had a blast, no coats were needed and K and I had a nice chat while we were walking. Sterling didn't want to dress up so he just walked along with us. I think this may be the last year as this is the costume Sterling wore when he was 5 and it still fits Kaedo - barely. Kaedo only got a small bag of peanut candies and tons of chips and other treats. He was happy with his stash and I noticed him putting a box of Smarties in his lunch bag this morning.

Glad you had fun and received lots of treats Kaedo. It sucks when you get too old to do some stuff that you've liked doing in the past, doesn't it Sterling.

We'll probably take in a movie today as the weather isn't great to do much of anything else. Snowing right now but it's not supposed to stay around for long.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Love to all

For Halloween, we had a whole 5 kids at our place so guess who's eating all the treats!!! We always buy peanut free box of smarties, coffee crisp, aero & kit kat bars and cheezies just in case we don't get many kids so we can enjoy them later. Looks like Kaeden will have a few treats for quite some time. It was beautiful weather here as well for Halloween but we missed all the little ones because we didn't get home till 6:30 from the funeral we were helping at.

Irene - keep that white stuff there - we don't want it!! It is -3 here this morning but sun is shining and not much wind. Nice to always see the sun out but I noticed our front windows are looking pretty dirty. I just said to Stan this morning - hope it gets nice enough to clean them one more time because it will be a long winter looking through those every morning.

Not too much planned for this weekend other than going to a Fall supper on Sunday night with John & Alice Wall - it's been a yearly get-together for about 5 years so we're looking forward to our visit with them.

Hope everyone has a great day - BIG HUGS TO ALL!
