This is How-o-Ween

Halloween was just right. For being on a Monday, we made good time and everyone was in bed at a decent hour. We went up to Papa/Gigi's house and trick or treated in that neighborhood. They live in a culdesac and all the neighbors block it off to hand out candy and have a potluck. TOO COOL!


Tony was a soldier.

Andrew was from the SWAT team.

Mylo was an Angry Bird.

Maxton was Thomas (again)

Maxton and I spent the day singing "This is Halloween" from Nightmare Before Christmas. It's STILL in my head!

Decorating Fun

I decided to decorate for Halloween at the last minute last night. I'm so glad I saved the decorations from Mylo/Max's Halloween birthday party last year. They are so cute!

I found this little garland thing at Goodwill for $2. I'm lovin it and wished I would've decorated sooner. I'm going to be sad to to have to take all this down so soon.

Yard Sale Day

Yesterday, we had our first yard sale. What fun! The weather was nice and we had lots of shoppers. I'm thinking this might become a regular event for us. At least in the cooler months. I buy so much stuff at Goodwill, it might be a necessity to clear things out on a regular basis. HA! We no doubt, had TONS of crap to clear out and managed to get rid of a healthy chunk of it. All the boys enjoyed talking to the shoppers and Maxton showed off his Diesel 10 train to nearly everyone that came up the driveway. My mom joined us bright and early and came with breakfast. Later, my buddy Dez came with her family. They bought stuff AND brought donuts! THANKS, DEZ!

All in all, a pretty successful yard sale. We ended with a super delish, late lunch at Streets of New York. mmmmmmm
