HALLOWEEN FUN

After reading my friend Monica's wonderful blog, I decided to make one for my family to keep my friends and family posted on my families updates.

Well, today is halloween and that is a very FUN day at our house. Benjamin has a festival at school so I will be heading out there to help in the Fabulous Food Court serving food with an igredient that I don't allow my children to eat at home....SUGAR!!!! Benjamin is dressed as a ninja because he decided that being a Power Ranger was "not cool" for a 1st grader. This made me a little sad because I remember when he wanted to do nothing else but run around in his superhero costumes...it seems much too early for him to be saying it is "not cool." But, I am hoping that he'll change his mind tonight when we go trick or treating as a family. I have a feeling Power Rangers will all of a sudden be cool around his little brothers.

Daniel is thrilled about being Buzz Lightyear, Samuel truly believes he is Batman and David, well, he just wants the candy. So the plan is to start trick or treating at 5 p.m. around our neighborhood with my friend Adriana's son River. After about four houses the boys are thrilled to have five pieces of candy within reach so they are ready to go back home and enjoy. We are gonna head back and make "ghost" cupcakes and candy apples.

Can't wait for tonight!
