Happy Halloween


Happy Halloween all!!! We celebrated our first Halloween in the new house. There are decorations on outside and a Sign on the door that says "the witch is in - treats inside". Daisy Dog dressed up as a little piglet. It was quite apropos considering how she snorts like a pig.

half of the neighborhood kids thought she was adorable, and were scared of her bark. She did a REALLY good job. Ms. Maureen gave her a yummy bone last night, so she gnawed on it most of the night, as well as informing me of when kids were at the door. She didn't run away and she was just all arou good. NOw she is absolutely exhausted, and passed out on the floor from all of the excitement.

We had well over a hundred trick or treaters - I quit counting around 70 at 7:15ish. They came in droves with parents towing trailers up and down the road with bales of hay and kids in costumes. Some of the kids were adoreable. Lots of princesses and spidermen and pirates. I must have given out almost $50 in candy!

I also got ding dong ditched twice tonight! The catch is - I knew exactly who it was! The Preston and Travis from up the street were ding dong ditching their parents the other night. Daisy and I walked up on them when they were running from Prestons dad - who was in full army camo chasing them down! So, I knew it was them this evening. Still, they were good - and they are cute kids.

All in all, a positive first haloween in the house!
