Deacon Is Thankful

This afternoon, Deacon came home with this darling Thanksgiving booklet that he made.

Allow me to translate:

"I am thankful for Mac & Cheese because it taste good."

"I am thankful for pizza because it taste good."

"I am thankful for meatballs because it taste good."

"I am thankful for meatballs because they are meaty."

"I am thankful for my mom because I love her."

I love it, and...

I am so thankful for YOU, Deacon!!

Lucia Tattles.

There isn't a day that goes by that I don't have one or 5 conversations like this one with Lucia. 

She kind of likes to be a tattle-tale.  Usually the only words that I can catch her saying are:

"Deedon" - Deacon

"Darlatt" - Scarlett

"bonk head"

"crying"

"hit"

But how can I not just listen intently to every thing she says?  Look at that face!

This Is Halloween!

Ahh.....Halloween.  

Here are just a few pictures of the kids from last night.  

 Star Wars Storm Trooper, Alice in Wonderland and Little Bo Peep.

 Yes, the costume is a teense bit big.  He loved it.  He was so excited.

 This little gal, for some reason, was terrified of her costume.  Just a little blue dress!?  She didn't chill out until I gave her some Skittles and then she was ok.

Pretty girl! 

Here is Scarlett, all ready to trick-or-treat!  Looking beautiful in her "Little Go-Peep" costume. 

Priceless.

AND THEN....."THE AFTER": 

 It was so cold outside.  About 35 degrees, and then I don't know how cold with the wind-chill.  And it was raining.

  

Deacon and Lucia were fine, and Scarlett was miserable.  I think we got in a solid 10-12 minutes of walking around and called it good! As soon as I snapped this second picture she was upstairs, out of her costume and in jammies in a second.

Hope you all had a fun and safe Halloween!
