the whole gang



Tim was darth vader.
Emma was a sparkly fairy.
Connor was Iron Man.
Ronan was a lion without ears or a mane so daddy kept track of them.
Erica was a vampire without vampire teeth. (erica says tooth decay)

it was a lot of fun taking these guys around.
Erica made out pretty well for someone who wasn't really supposed to be trick or treating. She walked around with us and a lot of people offered her candy which she gladly accepted.

Timothy was the only jedi for miles around. Star Wars is loosing it's appeal. We did run into another Vader passing out candy right before we called it a night.
Timmer lead the chorus of 'trick-or-treat' because Emma and Connor kept forgetting or we too shy to say it.

Emma was so shiny. another little girl (probably about 3 yrs old) passed her and said 'pretty. you pretty.'
Emma had it all figured out and at the beginning of the night was pointing out the houses with lights on and making the plan of which houses to go to first.

Connor was the leader. as soon as we reached a new drive way or yard he took off running. Tim made the comment at one point that Connor was a man on a mission.
on our way home right before he fell asleep Connor mentioned that trick or treating was hard work.

it took one house for Ronan to realize what we were up to last night. most of the houses we went to let the kids choose what piece of candy they wanted. Tim carried Ronan most of the time and when the home owner would answer the door Ronan was leaning way over with arms stretched in front of him trying with all of his might to get to that candy dish. a couple of times he started running in the air.
gotta get that candy!
Now Ronan was a man on a mission if there ever was one.


Now I can focus real hard on Christmas.

why do I always do this? so many things have happened in the past two years.  I just feel so silly that I haven't kept up on the blog.  ...
