Patriotic Halloween



It was kind of strange to vote on Halloween, yet after I came out of the little booth, I was so proud to get my "I Voted" sticker. I even yelled out to this candidate as I was driving away, "You got my vote!" It was really cheesy, but I felt so good that day, so patriotic! JoNathan, Samantha and I went trick or treating at our Home Teachers neighborhood. It's kind of an exclusive neighborhood with local celebrities living there. They make a big deal out of Halloween with haunted houses, smoke machines, king size candy bars and wild decorations! Samantha can't say trick or treat yet, but as I walked her up the steps she would see the candy and say "Please!" She was so dang cute!! I thought she would be scared of it all, but quite the opposite, she was mesmerized by all the decorations and the crazy people walking around and would say "HI!" to everyone we passed! JoNathan was way too cool to dress up so he put his football jersey on and grabbed a pillow case. Maurice said he went to some fun parties, but no trick or treating.....After all he's way too old! (I mean cool) ;-)

Isn't Trick or Treating so much fun with an adorable baby! That costume was perfect for her. I'm hoping to see that adorable face soon. Ava misses her cousins so much! She makes me show her pics of her holding Sam when she was tiny in the tub all the time. Anyways it was great to talk to you last night and hope to see you all soon.

Samantha looks so cute. Cute costumes are not easy to find, at least that I've seen. You have go to special places, not Walmart, I guess.
Glad Halloween is over, and now looking forward to seeing you all at Thanksgiving, at least the ones that come. Wish all could come.
