Happy Halloween!!!

It's that wonderful day of the year again when all the spooks and ghost and goblins come out to play!!! Our Halloween started off just like any other school day: getting breakfast and lunches pack and then getting kids off to school. I did it alone though since T has had his boss all week and he was gone early early this morning. Then I got C dropped off at school and had to be back there by 9:30AM to help with their Halloween activities so I had just enough time to run and get some ice tea and change for the meter!! Once back and when I was in his class room I helped paint faces for all the kids: some of the other stuff they did was pumpkin bowling, stamping, ghost throw, play dough table, water table and pumpkin "pounding". C (and his friends) had so much fun!! Then the kids had snack, a store and then it was time to go on the hat parade around the block!! All the kids lined up and we walked up and around the block and then down Philly street: waving at cars and yelling happy halloween!! We stop at Senator White's building and he gave out suckers and the kids got his photo taken with him! Then it was back to school and we were done for the day!!!

C and his best buddy B!!! The dragon and the knight!!

C even gave momma some face paint, a rainbow!!
C and I headed to Mickey's for our lunch date and then it was home to prepare for our halloween dinner!! I made cupcakes, pudding parfaits, witches brooms. I used my silhouette to put pumpkin faces on everything!! Hahaha!! I then had to pick Sydney up at 4PM and then once home I started the hamburgers!! The kids loved it and I had fun making it festive for them!!

Well let's see,

poor T was up at 5am working on work stuff and he had to leave at 6:45am. He has his boss this week so he is super stressed!! But we made it through the morning and then once everyone was out the door I cleaned the living room just a bit and vacuumed. Then I went to work on making C's hat for his hat parade tomorrow!!! I decided to make him a dragon hat and I must say it turned out soooooooooooo cute!!! It's no where perfect but he LOVES it and that's all that matters!!!

Then I cleaned up my sewing mess and started working on my Halloween albums!! I made a HUGE dent into 2011!!! Then I decided to take advantage of a deal some one posted in my PL facebook group about free prints from Shutterfly, 101 free prints!!! So I spent the rest of the afternoon editing past pumpkin patch photos!! Then once Little man and Gman got home I took C and Gman to get their hair cut, they needed it so badly!! 

Just before I left though T text and he was on his way home, so he was going to be home for dinner!! Woo Hoo!!! Once the boys were done with haircuts I ran to Michael's to get some white ink that I needed and then we hit Giant Eagle to get S's medicine. Then it was home to made dinner (spaghetti/meatballs). After dinner my brother Jay called and he wanted to tell me he was moving back to Ohio, he quit his job and is going in to business with his buddy (flipping houses) and he will be back "home" in like 2 weeks!! Then we hung out in the living room watching TV while the kids took turns bathing and then it was bed for everyone!!! I finished up my photo editing and then ordered my photos, now I'm writing this and then I'm going to BED!! I might read for a bit, but we will see!! Busy day tomorrow!!
