Halloween Letdown

November 2, 2009 RavenThreads

I love holidays, and I hate to see this one end. Halloween is the week of my birthday, and it seems as if Halloween is a great way to end a birthday party. Our big event this year is that we had a trunk in this year’s trunk or treat party at the church. (Held inside at booths because of the rain).

Kevin and I were very cute pirates, if I do say so myself:

We originally started with a Peter Pan theme, suggested by Bennett, but it all fell apart when Bennett decided to be “Super Bennett” instead:

Then, Emalee decided to be a witch, so the idea of Peter Pan was over:

Still, we had a great time, and we watched a couple of new to the kids movies–”The Nightmare Before Christmas” and “The Wizard of Oz”. Also, we watched “House of Mouse: House of Villians” for about the third time in a week. They just love the Mickey Mouse cartoons right now!

Today, I’ve put away their Halloween t-shirts for next year (in the hopes that they’ll fit), and I’ve started thinking about taking down Halloween decorations to make way for Thanksgiving. Yum!!….I feel the baby kick and move inside and know that the 15 weeks to go until delivery are going to pass very rapidly as these holidays pass too. Happy belated Halloween everyone!
