Having Halloween on a Monday this year worked to stretch Halloween out into a four day super-holiday! Friday we trunk-or-treated at the church, Saturday we trick-or-treated on base, Sunday we had our Freaky Feast, and Monday was Halloween Caroling. Whew!...love Halloween, but we were ready to be done when Tuesday rolled around!
The Menu included: Moldy Bread, Chuck's Shoulder with Dismembered Fingers, Earth Worms, and a Kitty Litter Cake that several of the kids were too disturbed by to eat...no matter how I tried, they were just not convinced that it was only tootsie rolls.
Oh man, I wish you guys were here so our Batman boys could have their picture taken together. Kade was excited when I told him Sawyer was the same thing he was for Halloween. By the way, THANK YOU for Kade's birthday card. He was so excited to get mail and loves that it is a transformer card. He plays it several times a day. Wish I were better at the card thing. I just hope you know that we think of all of you when it's your birthday! :)
Having this picture on my blog is the only excuse I have to look at it...so it's here to stay.
Overheard at Our House
Yesterday as Tyler was having his Father/Son interview with Briggs they got talking about signs of the last days and Second Coming. Tyler told Briggs that there would be a lot of natural disasters such as tornadoes, earthquakes, and tidal waves. Briggs said, "Oh yeah! I know! And like losing a coin or Playstation and busted controllers!"
Tyler recently spent 5 hours in the emergency room with Porter after a particularly bad attack of an asthma like condition he has. Driving home at the end of the 5 hours Porter turned to Tyler and said, "Dad, I appreciate your obedience. You were very good and very brave."
A Recent Dinner Conversation:
Porter: (As Mom shoes a fly away from his head) This fly is my buddy Mom!
Mom: Well did you know that your buddy has poo-poo feet?
Porter: (Choked out between sobs and a torrent of tears.) Don't call my buddy a name! Why did you say that about my buddy Mom? He doesn't have poo-poo on his feet!
Nothing I could say made it better. He only cried more until I just apologized for the poo-poo name calling incident.
