Halloween!!

We officially survived the weekend! Emily's school party was big fun. They decorated pumpkins, cookies, got tattoos, made ghosts, had goblin treats and read Halloween stories. 4 year olds are just cute and sweet (until they are tired and loaded up on sugar then look out!)

Olivia's Fall Festival at school was awesome too. I think there had to be about 2000 people there to eat, play, and hang out as families. Her school did a great job and it was fun to see her running around with her peeps all night!

Saturday night Olivia kind of wondered off with her friends but David and I enjoyed taking Emily around. She was so happy to be dressed like a princess (excuse me...secret musketeer) and had such fun telling everyone that she was a musketeer in disguise. If you'll notice I added some gems in loops at the bottom of her crown so when she pulled it down they went around her eyes like a mask. Big hit! The wonderment in a child's eyes when someone drops free candy in your bag at bedtime and your parents say "let's go get more!" is priceless. A real dream come true or should I say we were living happily ever after....

Oh yeah, we managed to stick in a semi real dinner and a cake before dark - Happy Birthday to our wonderful Daddy and Husband. You provide us many, many good things both material and emotional and we love you very much (for an old guy).
