So I really love Halloween. It's one of my favorite holidays! But for some reason it's also one of the most chaotic. For some reason I had blocked past Halloween mayhem when I decided swap the usual Taco Soup for a "Freaky Feast" and actually invited friends over for it. The kids were home all day which for some reason I thought would be helpful. Hellooooooooo! What was I thinking? I had all these great ideas, but in the end the food was totally thrown together. The drinks and cupcakes were fun, but the Severed Mummy Fingers needed some help and I didn't even put in a picture of the Deviled Egg Eyeballs. And did I mention we ate 40 minutes late? Which was only a big deal because Germans don't do Halloween. So we trick or teat on base and you only get from 6:00-8:00p.m. and the candy is GONE by 7:00. Ah well. The loot was still good and it was fun. And I'm sure I'll forget how crazy it was by next year and I'll try it all again!

You are ambitious! And your kids look really cute. I'm glad you posted that last picture of the kids on the steps because I was starting to think you have the perfect family and I'm glad to hear you're all pretty normal! Reminds me of pictures with my 8 siblings... hahaha
Oh Candice - those ideas always SOUND like so much fun! And I'm sure the kids had a blast. I can almost picture Tyler rolling his eyes, giving either the "why??" or the "I told you not to" look.
