I should book our next dentist appt now...



I hope you all had a lovely Halloween! I know we did!!! :)



I picked Hannah up from school - a first, since I'm normally at work. They had a costume parade - Hannah was so surprised to see that I was there. Then we went trick-or-treating at Mom's work, where we had to empty her pumpkin just so she could fill it up again:

The haul from Mommy's work . Note all the full-sized candies! (minus some treats eaten in the car on the way to Cindy's)

We skipped the second building, limiting ourselves to most of the three floors of my building, and then went to Cindy's house. Cindy is in school with me, which is fantastic so that I don't go crazy or quit school... or worse! (dun dun dun...)

While at Cindy's we made home-made pizzas. More accurately, Cindy made super-delicious home-made pizza and we ate it! Then Hannah went trick-or-treating with Ashton, Corbin, and Cindy's hubby Chad. They were out for a couple of hours and went to tons of houses. Pickle Man Pete was Hannah's favorite house! Of the provided choices, Hannah picked the pickle on a stick, like most kids in the neighborhood do each year. It was between the pickle and random junk that he collected throughout the year (a magazine, a shark magnet, a rookie card of a nobody, and something football related - according to Chad). He had already run out of hard-boiled eggs by the time Hannah's group got there...

Hannah, with Ashton (werewolf), Corbin (lion), and Wigget (mini teacup Poodle - so no sneezing. Yay!!!)



Hannah's haul from Cindy's neighborhood


(Doesn't include her pickle-on-a-stick, as she consumed that immediately!)


Hannah fell asleep within 20 minutes of getting in the car. Then I had to make her walk in the house which was apparently a confusing task (and a bit hilarious for me to watch!). Upon entering the house, she stumbled into the bathroom for a little pit stop and promptly burst into tears. I managed to walk her through washing her hands and locating pajamas... then she laid down and was comatose within seconds. Whew!

We'll wash off the blood and white makeup tomorrow... No worries!

Sorry we missed coming to see you Mom and Dad! We wanted to come hug your necks and kiss your faces, but Hannah was just getting back from trick-or-treating when it was hitting your bed-time... We'll have to save the hugs and kisses for next weekend!


The candy pics above did not take into account the candy from the ward Trunk-or-Treat, as that had already been added to the candy bowl at the house... PS - Didn't Nancy's and Will's costumes turn out cute? Well-executed creativity, I must admit! Excited about a baby anyone??? :)
