Halloween 2013

Halloween 2013 was a success!  I had been looking forward to it this whole month!  Pearce has had so much fun walking up and down our street looking at the "pooky houses" each night and he always wanted to see the "ah-ween 'tuff" at the store.  Christie and Mike and Ridley came over and the boys played for a while then it was time to get ready to go trick-or-treating!  It was so fun walking outside and seeing all the excited kids.  Pearce and Ridley did pretty well for their first time trick-or-treating!  At one house, though, Pearce started putting his candy that he had already gotten into the man's candy bucket that he was handing out!  I had to look through the man's bucket and find the slobbery half eaten pieces and put those back in Pearce's bucket!  We went to several houses and Pearce was just so happy walking up and getting candy.  It was just such a fun time!  When we came back, Chris had chili heating up on the stove and man, was it good!  Surprisingly, the boys really didn't go crazy over all of their candy.  Pearce was happy eating a sucker and a few pieces of chocolate, but that was it.  Christie and I gave the boys a bath and Christie brought a fun bath activity for them...glo sticks!  Oh my gosh, they went crazy over those glo sticks!  They really went crazy over them after I turned out the lights!  I'm sort of sad it's over!  We had such a great time!  Can't wait until next year! 

This couple cracked me up!  They were both dressed in their tennis outfits and so "cutesy" looking.  They are the couple that already has these fancy tennis clothes in their closet and the wife says "Oh honey, let's just dress in our cute tennis clothes and be a cute tennis couple!"
