Halloweeeeeen!

Well, Halloween came and went. And now we have an ungodly amount of candy in our house. How about you?? It's such a funny holiday, isn't it? Walk around and gather sugar that we don't need which just makes our kids cranky and onery! Oh well... I did adopt something very clever from my mom - the 10% candy tithe to mom! Like I need it too!

Anyway, the kids enjoyed dressing up and trick or treating with some friends.... In case you can't tell, Ashlyn was Jasmine (kind of - she was really supposed to be Little Bo Peep from a costume she wore for dance last year but when she got it on, Josh said it looked more like something from Aladdin so I put her hair in a high pony tail and we left the shepherd's staff at home!),

Luke was Superman and Ian was Batman. Gotta get the superheros out of the way before they get too old! We tried to get Luke to let us put rolled socks in the arms of his costume for muscles but he would have nothing of it!
