The Goods.....

My kids ALWAYS come home and IMMEDIATELY dump out all of their candy.....you know..they got to check out the loot! Here's Jake in the ritual known as the GREAT CANDY WORSHIP - we do this often at our house!
Then he and Mackenize set out organizing their goods....I'm not sure of the purpose but maybe it means Jake is going to be an accountant some day...who knows?! Candy has been known to bring out the BEST in people!
What??!!!! What is this we find in our stash??? That evil DENTIST up the street snuck a TOOTHBRUSH & FLOSS in our bag of tooth decay?! What was he THINKING?????!!!!!

I'LL SHOW HIM WHO'S BOSS!! Ahhh Ahhh Ahhh Ahhhh! Says the green faced little girl who is embarking on the biggest sugar high she has ever had!

Trick or Treat part One....

This year my church had it's very first TRUNK or TREAT...it's an idea I stole from Heather Rom's church ..thanks Heather! Anyway it turned out to be a great success! People were sooo creative with their cars..I loved it! My car is above...and I have to say it was the least decorated of almost all of them! Most people had theme music to match their decor and wore costumes to complete the idea...it was great! Jake decided to be a Mafia Gangster dude...I told him he had to leave the machine gun at home....Not so appropriate for church...call me crazy! :)
Here's my good little witch checking out the food table! Notice the Ohhh so casual stance like ... don't mind me .. I'm not doing anything! Yeah right! You may also notice her green face....well that's a great story... you see I forgot to get green face paint and Mackenzie was VERY disappointed...so in my haste of looking through my pantry I found GREEN FOOD COLORING....I thought...Hey this is green...I bet it will stay on Mackenzie! So away I went wiping it all over her face and neck! It's wasn't' until AFTER I tried to wash my hands did I remember that FOOD COLORING DOESN'T COME OFF YOUR SKIN!!! OOOHHHH my gosh...what had I done to my beautiful babies face?!? Was she going to be green for forever?? So I ran to the computer and googled "how to get food coloring off skin" and of course the great google gave me an answer....ohh thank you google...what would I do without you? It turns out shaving cream takes food coloring right off! So remember that girls ...the next time you want to dye your kids face a nice color of green, blue, yellow or whatever color you like..just keep the shaving cream handy!
One car had a fog machine...Jake had GREAT fun with it...No one could breath after he was done!
Tara - who goes to church with us- had a great Trunk....it was a beach theme complete with a surfboard and Beach Boys music! Very Cute!
