end of the week and month simultaneous

Couldn't help but revise my week in review... It wasn't quite over! Here are a few traditions that I look forward to every Halloween...
Sick and Tired's Halloween costume party. It is (NO KIDDING) SPOOKTACULAR! The best part is that if you come you must dress up! No party poopers!!!

Bailey won "most original" for her pipi long stockings costume.


Kati won "best female costume"! Nate won "best male costume"... two years in a row, I might add...
Grandma Chrissy and Grandpa Konks have a Halloween party every year for the grands. It is the favorite party of the year for my trick-or-treaters! A real treat indeed...
It is grandma's way of seeing all her favorites in costume and deliver festive treats!
We eat yummy soup
we frost scary spider cakes
we catch spooky ghosts
We throw sticky eyeballs on witches
we play candy corn toss
and break pinatas

and then we go trick-or-treating with our cousins...

with BIG smiles lasting all night!!!


Happy Halloween!

A week of photographic memories

Autumn is one of my favorite times of the year... Right up there with winter, spring and summer! Halloween really begins the Holidays for me. When it starts to smell like football in the air and the weather cools below 100, I start getting the itch for...

Parties with friends and family.
Bon Fires and roasted marshmallows.
Pumpkins and Jack O Lanterns
Chili cook offs and caramel apples.
Costumes.
Trick or Treats.
Smells of Soup cooking in my kitchen.
It is the perfect beginning of smiles and fun to lead into a month a Thanks giving... and then on to the celebration of the birth and life of our most beloved Savior.
