Happy Halloween!!

Every year we have a family tradition on Halloween. We all dress up in costume and when I say all, I mean all of us. I am the oldest of 5 siblings, so we (along with our spouses, boyfriends, girlfriend etc.) and all of our children (9), My Dad ( he is our driver) go to my Mothers to eat treats and just be together. After that we load up in the back of my Dad's truck with blankets and pillows, and head off about a half mile away to the largest neighborhood party you have ever seen! Literally thousands of people go to this one neighborhood where all the houses are decorated, parties are going on, trick or treating like crazy, kids, adults, people of all ages just having a blast. You are guaranteed to see lots of people you know and it's just really a lot of fun!



these pictures are from last year



This is my crazy sister Heather and her crazy husband Shaun, I swear they ain't right!! (little southern slang)






On our way to trick or treat!!





My sister Amanda and I




Anyway!! We didn't get to go this year!! ;(


Six of the cousins were doing other things this year with their other family members. Dang it! Well, we did manage to have fun anyway. We, and my sister Heather took our children to our local mall, where there were also lots of cute little kiddos in costume and they got enough candy to last until next year. Here are some shots of Sis, and bubby after we returned home, because I forgot to take along my camera.








Dorothy and Toto ( it's the closet Toto I could find, we joked that it was a Chinese Toto.)
