BOO!!!!

We went trick or treating 3 times this year...a bit much i know....tell that to the enormous mound of candy in my freezer.  I decided to freeze the candy so it would be harder to eat large quantities.  After trick or treating we left Noelle alone with her candy stash, it was an accident, Abe and I were preocupied working on the kitchen.  I went into the living room and with a slightly frantic giggle she said "mommy I just cant stop eating candy!"  I looked down to see a large pile of wrappers, needless to say we had quite a time trying to get her to sleep that night.  Chloe picked up on the whole trick or treating thing like a pro.  She ate her fair share of candy but now she has forgotten all about it doesn' know it is still readily available.  Noelle on the other hand askes for a piece every five minutes. I want to throw it all away so it doesn't deter me from my new diet, but

it seems like such a waste.  Abe wants it around too, he says it will excercise my will power and getting rid of it is the easy solution..  (I think he just wants it around because he doesnt feel guilty at all night after night of sugar indulgance)

TRUNK OR TREAT

(trick or treating out of the trunks of cars in the parking lot of our church the night before Halloween)

HALLOWEEN! (we went around our neighborhood with Tori (pocohantas)and Zach (nemo!!) We had a major melt down and since Noelles costume was mainly face paint...with all the tears we had to paint it three times! And when it was finally done for the last time it smeared all over the place! One of her piggytales is lower than the other due to a mighty hair pull by Chloe, I couldn't get her to stand still to fix it so we left it! Chloe would not get her face painted or wear her chick hat so she walked arould like a yellow fuzz ball and no one knew what she was! All in all it was a pretty funny night!! The girls had a blast with their friend once we made it into the cool night air and people started giving them candy!!

I didn't think I was dressed up but looking back at last year I am dressed in the same sweater my mom wore last year!!

we miss GRANDPA!!!!

Abes costume!
