Jeepers! It's Halloween!


This was a weird Halloween - none of us want a Sunday Halloween ever again!
It was just off, and made things not as fun :(
I could never settle on a costume - Tommy refused to dress up - Tim didn't want to go door to door and Michaela got pink eye and couldn't come over at all!

Mag as 'Snooki' and Tim as 'Dracula' at the church fall carnival


Tim & Michaela as matching vamps

Look out Tim!!!

After the church party, Tim came home and Maggie went to a halloween party with some friends. Everyone knew right away who she was! I thought she looked AMAZING!!
She didn't stay long - just long enough for someone to sideswipe her car! Ughhh!!!


Then on Sunday, after much debate as to whether or not we would allow trick or treating on the Sabbath - the kids chose to hang out together and hand out candy to the masses.
(i know - bad parents) We kept one big bag of chocolate that we had bought, for mag, tim and haley to share.
None of them dressed up and we all decided that a Sunday Halloween should be banned - next time it comes around, I think we should all petition the city to move trick or treating to Saturday - city wide.

Maggie, Haley & Tim decided that it was such a nice evening, that they would play a little catch before dinner and Halloween festivities.
This is Haley's ''pro ball player'' pose

Just a quick smile from maggie

just after Mag threw the ball (point blank range) at tims chest

then she ran away very fast, to avoid retaliation - all the way laughing a maniacal laugh!
yep, she really is 16 years old - not a mischievous little kid anymore! (said with much sarcasm)


a fun game of Monkey in the middle had Haley desperate to get the ball - who knew little Tim was such a great catch - Poor Haley!


Tim as monkey - pretty sure he caught this one!


Haley REALLY didn't want to be the monkey again!
Dive, Haley - Dive!!
(note the shaving cream on the street, professing the love between mag and haley? Tim found a can of cream as he was searching for a stray ball in the bushes - it was left over from months ago when mag & justin had a shaving cream fight!)

Trick or Treaters started coming just as we were about to have dinner, so the kids ate outside

Yumm - Tommy's most delicious scrambled eggs, and my favorite turkey bacon and turkey lil' smokies! (hey - don't judge -they were lucky to get any dinner at all!)

Can't wait until next year - already working on my possible costume list -
Paula Deen
Mr. Magorium
Dwight
Dee Snider
Wendy (burgers)
Kim Kardashian
Ludacris
Mrs. Potts
Wednesday Adams
Harry Potter
Any football player from Friday Night Lights - I'm leaning towards Tim Riggins - Go 33!!

I applaud your decision to not trick-or-treat on Sunday. We, on the other hand, were not so good. I'm sure I bought my ticket to h-e-double hockey sticks. Bummer about Maggie's car!
