52 Weeks of Happiness :: Week 34

Photobucket

The whirlwind of Halloween.

This year we seemed to really

get into the spirit of the holiday.

It seemed like every time we

turned around over the last few days

we were doing something Halloweeny.


Photobucket

There was a haunted hayride at a "Festiboo".

Photobucket

Oh, and I did tons of baking
for Griffin's class party.


Cupcakes compliments of

Kids Kingdom Bakery, of course.

(We're still taking pretend orders)


Photobucket

There was a big bad wolf costume
for school which requested

the kids to dress up as their favorite

storybook character.


Photobucket

Then we suited up in our REAL costumes.
We had the Red Power Ranger

and Handy Manny.


Photobucket

Then, of course,
there was the joy

of running around like wild animals

collecting as much candy

as could fit in a little green bucket.


It was a fantastic and full Halloween.

I feel so blessed to have

these two little guys

to celebrate the madness of it all.


I wouldn't take back one hectic moment.
