Happy Halloween! (HNT!)

Whilst trick-or-treating you can really see the personality differences in my children. My son, less greedy than last year, but still out for the kill got WAY more candy, and huge candy bars. My daughter, picked one thing- and only one thing- out of each bucket she was offered, and ended up with an apple (her choice) and no huge candy bars like her partners in crime.

This year I didn't go around with them, choosing instead to pass the candy out. So, I only got to hear the reports of how she really wanted the apple and Mr.T is still confused about how no one else got fruit. This would have been more of a concern had she dressed as Snow White, but I'm still weirded out/proud that she chooses apples, and even when it's okay to be greedy, she never is. Don't get me wrong, she got a good share of candy, it just wasn't the same as what her brother ended up with - and they both went to exactly the same houses.

"Blue hair, that's scary, right Mom?"

This year my son decided to 'create' his own costume, here we have the 'barbarian punk' wielding his club, grrr, blue hair makes it scary, yes, sure.



Here he showed me that he could pull a mean face, and you can see, he used staples. I thought that was genius and his dad thought that was dangerous.







Over to the right we have the Little Mermaid Ariel with the glowing red eyes - What you didn't know Ariel could be evil? Yes, I'm the one who made her wear the undershirt.

Before the trick-or-treating, she did a self-portrait.
