The Littles

These are the three I refer to as "The Littles". Here is Sophia is her Elizabeth Swan costume. For those of you who don't know, she is Captain Jack Sparrow's object of affection in the movie Pirates of the Caribbean. She LOVES this costume so she'll be wearing it tomorrow night for some trick or treating.

Oh my, I am one of those evil moms who lets my kids trick or treat in the neighborhood! One of my readers may find some way to use the word mutilate to describe that "behavior"!!!! LOL So far circumcision and tattoos are considered mutilation in her book. Funny stuff! I haven't looked up the word mutilate, but I don't think it fits for either!!!! Perhaps eating candy might be considered to be some type of mutilation???? Or, could it be that my kids will follow Satan if they knock on the neighbors doors???? Hmmmm... I think lots of us who are strong Christians grew up trick or treating. Right?

The candy gathering is fun, and then the candy vanishing is even more fun. You see after a day or two of eating a couple of pieces, I put the rest in a secret drawer. This becomes the "candy drawer" that only the grown ups know about. Then when we go to the movies, we grab a bunch for the kids. Or when they deserve a reward we grab some! My kids think candy is specifically for the movies!

Here is a pic of Josh and Zack! They are buds! This afternoon they watched Spiderman 3 together and enjoyed every minute of it. They are both HUGE Spiderman fans, and I am cool with that! I'm glad that Zack is past his Diego stage! I still get 24/7 of Dora though!!!!



We had a super fun weekend with Aunty Gina!!!!! We went bowling, to the park and much much more!!!! The kids adore her!!!! Sophia was very upset to see her go. We dropped her off at the airport and ran a few errands. When we were on our way home, Sophia yelled out, "Mom, what about Auntie Gina"? "We need to pick her up." She was so sad that she went back to CA.

Josh, Ken, and Zack had fun with Gina too. They played tag at the park. Showed off on their bikes. They played football too! It was great fun! Auntie Gina will return with Auntie Rona on November 9th. YIPPEE!!!
