Happy Halloween!!!

O.K. this post is going to be as short as possible. Friday night my family came over to eat dinner and carve pumpkins with the children! My parents took the kids to this Pumpkin Patch in Harpersville called Baker's Farm. They came back with MORE pumpkins and we seriously had 5 pumpkins! We needed a lot of hands to carve that many pumpkins! That was a fun night and after emptying all those pumpkins....we carved ONE!:) Oh well! A for effort! Children do not work very well on a schedule as you all probably know!

Halloween night is crazy! I know I say it every year, but the holidays around Liberty Park are absolutely crazy exciting! There are so many kids out here, it is like a freaking circus! I love it! Kids, Adults, yummy beverages, golf carts and wagons everywhere! We always start out at our friends house the Copeland's for chili and drinks. Around 6pm we head out to start trick or treating! The kids run all over the place as we the parents try not to loose track of them in the chaos! Christian was into the trick or treating last year, but wow this year he is obsessed with the candy! Candy, Candy and more candy! Can I have it for breakfast, lunch and dinner? Ah..how many times can you tell a little person no before it sinks into their tiny brain?

I pushed Henley in her car around the neighborhood because she is still not a fan of walking! Why would she be when someone can carry her around and give her what she wants all the time? Who needs to walk??? She took turns with me or being with Brian on the golf cart. We took her up to a few doors, but wow that gets old quick! Mostly she just people watched and ate candy! I think she thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it!

After everybody was tired of the trick or treating we all went back to a friend's house to a party. Their was a incredible spread of food and the beverages were flowing! All the children were in the basement playing and so high on sugar that I think they could of stayed up until midnight! If you can believe that Henley was even having a great time without mommy right on top of her! I finally told Brian that around 10:00 it was time to take the kids home! We had to practically carry our son out of the house and he had more candy in tow! Where was it all coming from?

We got home and gave them baths because they were horribly STICKY! Off too bed and to night night land! Henley went straight to sleep, but the other one took a little longer! I was kind of glad that they were up so late because of Day Lights Savings time! I thought that would help them sleep late in the morning, but no such luck! Oh Well! Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!








Here are some pics from Christian dresing up at school for trick-or-treating too that Friday.
