A Good Mom Would Have Had This Post Up by November 1st!



Or not!  We started out strong,  4 children, me, a husband, and an ex-wife.  The hippie decided to abandon us for her friends; all of whom trick or treated while texting.  Because they can do that.  Then Frankenstein dropped by a friend's house and decided that making scary sounds into a microphone to scare the little kids was way better than candy.  Which was fine because the monster had been complaining about his bolts all night anyway.  That left the two bunnies.  They really raked it in.  What with being so cute and all.  The big bunny was the ringleader and decided which house to go to.  Once we explained the Halloween Code to her (porch light on= come get candy here, no porch light= go away!  I'm too cheap to buy candy!) she had it mastered!  The little bunny ran full steam ahead to each and every house.  She fell down porch steps once and then down 2 driveways, but injuries were only to the pride.  It did make me wonder though how adults would be perceived if we only ran places.  Would we be locked up?  ANYWAY, when all children were gathered from the neighborhood and candy loot was discussed, I looked back to find the littlest bunny squishing and smooshing a Kit Kat through a tiny hole that she bitten off the corner. I guess that is a good Halloween!

Those kids are all so cute. It looks like a good time was had by all. I like Hannah's bangs.
