Halloween

Halloween fell on a VERY busy weekend for us this year. We hosted our neighborhood Wine Walk on Friday night, went to the Glandhander auction (the largest annual fundraiser for our kids' school), followed by our neighbor's Halloween party on Saturday night and then Halloween on Sunday night. The kids each chose their costumes, with Oliver's being the most difficult. Who knew that "Geo" (or "Cheeto" as he calls him) from Team Umizoomi would be so hard to find? Deb was so kind as to assist me in making it. We spent 2 late nights prior to Halloween working on it. He was so excited! There was NO getting out of it. He was dead set on this. He even wanted to have hands like Geo, with just 4 fingers. So we made them.

I have decided that next year I would like to make all of the costumes. It was actually fun! I think if I start WaY ahead of time, it will be ok.

We spent Halloween at The Cueter's new home on Sixth Street. For those of you not from here, Sixth Street is a historical street here in TC. The homes compete with one another on who has the best decorations. I have never seen so many people come from all over just to trick or treat there. There were 4 of us handing out candy at one time, just to prevent a back up! We had a wonderful and fun evening. We decorated the porch and had dinner and drinks. Cueters were so kind to have included us!
