"I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life;
to put to rout all that was not life and not when I had come to die, discover that I had not lived." ~Henry David Thoreau

Halloween Day

I feel a little guilty, but in a way I'm glad Halloween is over. It's my favorite holiday, but this year my energy level has been down (wonder why) and there has been so much going on. It will be nice to sit back and relax a little before the next holiday undertaking...Thanksgiving!

Ethan had a really fun Halloween party at school and loved it. He could name off to me what each member of his class wore as a costume, plus the teacher. Smarty pants! Then it was off to Daddy's office for their annual party for the kids. It's the one day out of the year when they open up the doors and let family members parade through. I know Cody gets a kick out of showing his kids off to his co-workers!

Then back home for dinner and trick or treating. Ethan and Hailey were sooooo very excited to go out, but when it came down to it they were beat after about 10 houses. And I was glad because I was exhausted. So the day has come and gone and now November is upon us. So until next year! (But I still don't expect Ethan to take off his Mr. Incredible costume)
