Halloween...a couple weeks late.

OK, I had every intention of posting pics of Halloween the day after Halloween, but such is life with "28 kids" (as my brother likes to jest.) We had a party at Katie's for our daycare kids, and our kids too. The kids made popcorn hands, ate Mummy Pizza, watched The Nightmare Before Christmas, and gobbled Cauldron Cupcakes. The green goo..uh, I mean frosting, sparked a costume change for Jack in time for Trick-or-Treating. In the evening, we gathered at grandma's house for soup before setting out to panhandle a sickening amount of candy. Mmmmm...Almond Joy! At one of the first houses, the kids were greeted by a blood covered, monster-masked fellow wielding a giant bowl of fun-sized chocolate bars. All the boys, save Jack, were a bit spooked. After receiving a couple of treats, Jack fearlessly said "Thank-you Monster!" It certainly melted this mama's heart.
