Happy Halloween and Happy Thanksgiving Early!

Happy Halloween--LATE! It seems to be the story of my life lately. I used to be prompt and on time and now it seems I'm always running late, and I'm thrilled if we make it somewhere just in time. The kids as always had a fun Halloween and I did manage to take a couple of pictures before it got dark--phew! Halloween on Monday....not my favorite. We trick-or-treated for about an hour and the kids were just fine with heading home, there bags were already too heavy to carry after an hour. Scott stayed home with the baby to pass out candy and he was practically in the street trying to attract trick-or-treaters because everyone else on our cul-de-sac was gone (or the houses are empty!) I did end up with quite a bit of extra candy, but I was smart this year and only bought candy that we like, AND I got it for almost free!!!

The kids loved going to the pumpkin patch and choosing their pumpkins, and Isa (I is pronounced as long E NOT short I, just like the iguana on Dora, yes I have seen every episode 500 times because they're still showing the same episodes they showed when T. was 3!!!) Sorry, I digress, Isa had a great time riding on daddy's back! She is the happiest baby, well except when her tummy is empty then she's REALLY ANGRY! But seriously she smiles ALL the time and she adores her brother and sisters. She thinks O. is the funniest person EVER. O. constantly has her laughing. The other night they were giggling together (O. is always laughing) then we knelt down for family prayer and O. was saying the prayer and I. would not stop laughing at her. Needless to say, that was a short prayer because we were all having a little trouble being reverent.
