happy halloween


so we had a halloween party at work on friday... i went as a zombie.



is that bad?

(sorry mom. do i at least get creative points?)

i won the contest, for what it's worth.



at any rate, happy halloween everyone.

i went all out this year with my house. and by "all out" i mean, putting out more than just jack o lanterns and a cool halloween mat on my front porch. i have friendly ghosts, a pumpkin made of lights, a crazy skeleton guy hanging on the door, spider webs with a billion spiders.... i even made a bunch of bats that i hung over my porch. they're actually my favorite part. (thanks martha).

beth went to our church halloween party as a peacock. i wasn't sure how she would take to the costume, but she actually did really well and didn't seem to mind wearing it at all. she just walked around and looked at everyone like they were crazy while she got lots of oooohs and aaaahs. it was so cute. i'm thinking i'll put it on her again tomorrow just to be festive and fun (she's too young to trick or treat still and really doesn't need all the candy). so i think we'll do it just for fun and to get pictures. it's pretty dang cute, i'll be honest. so we'll see if she'll do a take two on it. i hope so.

well friends, i hope your halloween is as festive as we anticipate ours to be!
don't get too spooked out there...
