It is almost time for my favorite holiday and I am very excited. On Sunday we got a little taste of trick-or-treating and holiday celebrations. My friend Jackie had a Halloween party at her house. There were tons of treats, scary Halloween ghouls, and games for the children to play. Tristen and Chloe soaked themselves in a game of bobbing for apples and Chloe won first prize in pin your name on the pumpkin. After partying it up we went to the area businesses and did some trick-or-treating. That was especially nice since the weather was so beautiful that the girls were able to show off their costumes a bit more than normal. Afterwards there was a wiener roast at the park and both of the girls were able to cook their own hot dogs. Once Sunday was finished we all were quite wore out.
I am not sure who is more excited about this week me or the girls. Tristen has her Halloween party at school tomorrow and that is all I have heard about all day. Also tomorrow night we are going to be going trick-or-treating in Houghton and carving our pumpkins.... since we have been so busy the last few weekends and still haven't gotten around to it. Then on Wednesday night we are taking the girls to Mt.P for some more trick-or-treating and some activities at the E Center, formally known as Hy-Vee. I love celebrating holidays with my children and am a true believer in traditions.
I will not be around the next few days due to the holidays and I go to meet my specialist in Ia City for my Rheumatoid Arthritis, yes young people do suffer from arthritis.. lol... Anyhow I hope everyone has a fantastic Halloween:)
