Halloween 2014

Stratton’s Kindergarten class had a field trip to Pumpkin Hollow. I needed to work, so Gigi went with Stratton. I think they had a good time! She sent me a couple of pictures of Stratton having a blast!

They got back to J’boro around 3pm, so they went to pick Arden up early for me! Mom had them bathed and fed when I got home! Then it was time to get their costumes on and head to Truck or Treat at the church!

Our “Engine Turtle” Leonardo and the Sad Lady Bug

We didn’t stay very long, it was really cold and the kids and I all had a little bit of a cold. Plus, it was jammed-packed with people! They advertise the event as a community outreach, and let me tell you- I think everyone in Valley View and beyond was there! Next year I’m thinking we will decorate our trunk and pass out candy instead!! When we left the church we went by to see Uncle Dillon, Aunt Brandye and Darcy. We visited with them (and I got to snuggle with Darcy) for awhile before heading home! Both kids were mad because we wouldn’t let them eat all their candy, and were cold, tired and super cranky!! I was ready for bedtime! Halloween is my least favorite holiday, to say the least! And it wouldn’t be so bad if kids could trick or treat for books, or stickers, or ANYTHING besides candy! The majority of the kids stash will go to work with Jarrod! Ha! Oh well, another year in the books. Now on to my favorite Holidays!! Thanksgiving and Christmas!!
