Halloween 2008

The kids have a parade at school every year. So I took the boys down to see it. I also took the boys down that I babysat. So that was a whole load of boys to load and unload out of the car, but we made it. I can never get good pics in the school...so this is what I got.




This is the first year that Jentry has actually stopped and posed for a pic. She is usually too embarassed. Maybe Im getting cooler!!!

Then we came home, ate lunch, and Amys boys went home. My parents came over and the girls got home from school. They were ready to go T or Ting right then. So was Grandma. We had to wait a few hours and I told them once they saw other kids out trick or treating we could go. Sure enuff at around five we saw one other little group. The kids and grandma were ready to go! But first we had to get a picture of all of them together. I told them to look at me and Ty told Shaylee to look up...so this is what we got.



And then they were off!!!




(as you can see, Grandma is in the lead)

Me and mom took them up and down our street and then let Jentry and Brinley break off. We were holding them up. When we got back home Grandpa and Scott were ready to take them down the next street.


Mom and I sat on the poarch and handed out candy (ok, fruit snacks) Mom was so excited she'd run to the sidewalk to give it to the kids. I told the parents we were a drive thru service. No need to stop, just keep going.

I cant believe how nice the weather was!!! Usually the kids are ice cold when they get home and we end up with stuffy noses. But not this year. And because of daylight savings, it was light the whole time they were trick or treating. SO NICE!!!

Then we went to dinner at Sizzler and went and visited my grandma and grandpa Scott. We had a great night! Thanks mom and dad for coming and going trick or treating with us!!!

Loved the drive-through service. Teach that to the neighbors and we'll be done in 30 minutes. ;)
