Crazy Halloween Night

Well thank God that's over. I really need Jaesen here for Halloween, it is his favorite holiday and all. The kids wanted so badly to carve pumpkins and I said of course, but dear God, can you imagine trying to carve pumpkins with 3 kids all yelling at you, knives, and yucky pumpkin seeds? At any rate we succeeded in carving 3 pumpkins which promptly rotted in the Jacksonville heat. Boy was I glad we spent time on that activity! I was a bit worried about where we would actually go trick or treat, our subdivision is only about half completed so not too many homes, but I opted to stay here anyway. The kids had a ball and most of the houses gave out handfuls of candy so they got plenty. And our poor koala bear fell asleep sitting up in the wagon. By 7 we were back home gorging on candy and trying to max out our blood sugar levels. All in all a great time, but I will be glad to have Jaesen home next year to help with the chaos!
