Trick or Treat

It's a fun fall weekend around here. This morning was our town's fall craft fair, this afternoon our local nursing home hosted a halloween party for kids, followed by trick or treating at the nursing home. We also carved our pumpkin this afternoon, and in between everything else I've been baking for a bake sale, and preparing food for Isabella's birthday party tomorrow.


And as a side note, I just have to say there are very few things that aggravate me more than people who use foul language. I am SO sick of every public place I go to, (restaurants, grocery shopping, etc.) I have to listen to people swearing! But what bothers me even more is when my kids hear it. For example, the last time we were at the zoo, a guy standing right next to us was dropping f-bombs! And today (at a KIDS halloween party) the guys right next to us were also swearing up a storm. I gave them a not so nice look, and inside I was furious that my kids were hearing that! What to do you in that situation? We moved away from them, but I was SO tempted to say something! And that's my rant for this evening, I better get my house in shape before Isabella's party tomorrow.



My little lion. We kept calling him "Lello" because this is one of his favorite books. Don't look too close at the picture! We were given this costume as a hand me down, and it's size 6-9 months. I was determined to squeeze my 14 month old in it, just to get some use out of it!


And I was thrilled when Isabella said she wanted to use her costume from last year. Her shirt is a little small, too, and her wings were a little crumpled from poor storage, but oh well!

How cute! And what a happy looking jack o lantern!

And the swearing,...yeah. I have done more than flash a dirty look a few times, especially when it was young people (younger than me anyway)!
