Halloween

Halloween is coming. With ghosts and big black cats. Wait a minute what's Santa Clause dong here? In September I asked Patrick what he wanted to be for Halloween. I told him he could be a race car driver, police man, or whatever else he wanted. He then replied "I'm going to be Santa Clause, and Renee's going to be an elf." I was completely shocked. This was the boy who last year was so terrified of Santa that he requested his presents be left outside so Santa wouldn't come into the house.

So, being a good Mommy, but not at all crafty, I did the best I could with the costumes. They came out pretty cute. On Halloween we all loaded up our sleigh and went to Great Grammie's park to do some trick-or-treating. Both the kids had a great time, and got to munch a few pieces of candy.

Ho, ho, ho.... Merry Halloween!
