I Need A "Do Over"

Sad but true, Halloween 2008 did not go exactly as planned....

Both kids were crabby, neither wanted to dress in their costume and I didn't even get good pics! Oh, and Mike was working. Mind you, I did have help from multiple grandparents but it still was a bit of a blur.

I am not a Halloween fanatic but it is usually a fun time and I am bummed it didn't go a bit better. BUT, the boys did have fun trick or treating. Even Liam was trying to say "Trick or Treat" and both were pretty polite with saying thank you. I wish I had THAT on video...sigh...

Since Mike was at work anyway, I might just try to get the boys into their costumes tomorrow- just so he can see them and I can MAYBE get a good photo for the memory books.

At any rate, along with yummy candy, here is what we got:

READY TO GET SOME TREATS-Michael (Elmo) and Liam (Puppy without puppy top and cute little nose colored in with a black eyeliner pencil)






Liam and Poppy (my dad)








Michael and Mom-Mom (Mike's mom)

Good Stuff:
*God Bless Mom-Mom, Grammy and Poppy. Without them, it would have been a complete disaster instead of just a manageable tantrum central
*Michael and Liam enjoyed things once we got outside and started the official trick or treating
The text of this post is weird and I can't figure out how to fix it- this has not been a very smooth day!!
