springbeduk I hear there's a shooting in your state. Are you and yours all ok? Yes, thank you- it's about 1.5 or 2 hours away (and no mention of the suspect being from or having connections to the area where I live so hopefully he hasn't come in this direction even if he got another vehicle). |

This was the first year both my kids are old enough to negotiate candy trades. It was hilarious to watch/listen to them last night when we got home from trick or treating - right down to business!
I hope the rest of you and your kiddos had a good Halloween!

I hope the rest of you and your kiddos had a good Halloween! It was bitterly cold here, so costumes were obscured by winter coats here, but the kids both got quite a haul. And thankfully for DD2, there were a lot less snickers, milky ways, and 3 musketeers this year. Those are basically the only things she trades with her sister, since she can't eat them. |

DS has so much candy. He went to 2 trunk or treats, a Halloween/birthday party and ToT. It was the first time he went with friends and he had a blast. They had a serious candy trade as well. |

We have plastic tubs for the kids to put their candy in throughout the year. They are bursting. We didn't even make it through the full ToT hours. I was kind of glad. We also have leftover candy from our handing out. We put a couple bowls outside while we're gone (one with non-candy treats for any allergy kids) and despite me thinking someone will empty it, no one ever does. |

Hope all the Americans had a good Thanksgiving. I'm completely worn out from the last two days.

DD2 asked Santa to send an elf to our house. I was really hoping to avoid all that.

DD2 asked Santa to send an elf to our house. I was really hoping to avoid all that. Last year was the first year the girls asked for one so we broke down and got one. It's actually kind of fun. We don't make it a good behavior thing though and I don't do anything crazy like wrap the whole house up in wrapping paper. She just moves around doing fun things every night. |
