It was a dark and stormy night

Not really. It was a really pleasant evening. Halloween 2011 has come and gone. But the candy bags remain completely full. Granted it's only been 4 days, but 4 days with unlimited amounts of candy. And my kids have chosen not to eat it. (I have no idea who they're related to)

We began our Trick or Treating extravaganza a week earlier. Our local market has what they call a Boo Bash. Kids can dress up and trick or treat through the grocery store. If you're interested in going next year check out Kowalski's Market.

This year the kids went as Harry Potter and the Vampire Queen.


On the actual day of Halloween, Claire mixed it up. She loves dressing up and wanted to make her costume CREEPY. So she went as a porcelain doll zombie. Really. All her idea.


We also had quite a group this year. My sisters, my sister and brother in law, the neighbors, the OLD neighbors, and miscellaneous nieces and nephews. We covered the entire neighborhood and went to the fire department. It was quite a brood.




Hope you all had a great halloween!
