Happy Halloween!!!

Last night was Halloween!!! First off Happy November 1st. Secondly, what a blast, as always. Thirdly, Brian passed his final yesterday(it was a HUGE Stresser at our home) and now he is able to take his Journeyman's Exam to become an officially licensed electrician. I am so proud of him. So this is how our night went, sorry the pictures are out of order. But essentially, Brian and I went to my little sister's work with McKadie for their annual trick or treat for the kids of family member's that work there.
Mom and dad went too, and Katrina and Mindy went later with their kids but we missed them because we had to get to the kids school for their Halloween Costume Parade.
They looked great and Brian didn't even recognize Hunter...it was so funny.
When Hunter was getting ready for school and I took his picture, he was making the scariest faces he possibly could. It was funny. He took his character very seriously.
Sadie was the cutest cat I had ever seen...of course:)
And McKadie was the cutest dog by far.
After all the nights events(trunk or treat, trick or treating, visiting my grandma, visiting Brian's grandma and family, washing off all the makeup, Brian turning my shower black:)) we went to dinner with some friends to celebrate Brian passing his test. It was so much fun and we had some good laughs. When we arrived home however, we had discovered that our house had been egged while we were away. My parents were at my house with my kids and they didn't hear anything. Our friends daughter said that she heard a girl screaming out in the street and acting all crazy. We filed a police report and they encouraged us to report any activity at any time to keep our neighborhood safe. Brian and I were outside until after midnight, in the rain, spraying and scrubbing off the egg to the best we could. There is still a bunch of egg all over the outside of the house. Thank heavens nothing was broken, but I did have to throw away my witch decoration becasue she was dowsed in egg. So when we woke up this morning, we saw that there were broken pumpkins all over the neighborhood. What a crummy way to end a great and fun day. Oh well. It was a chance to teach our kids that vandalizing is against the law and it is very wrong. We also gave them a strong warning that if we ever caught them doing something like that, they would be taken by daddy to the house to clean it and then to the police station to report what they had done. I know it is a strong threat, but i think they got the point.
So we hope you had a wonderful Halloween and a wonderful start to your November.
