October is Almost Here!

Well, the Christmas decorations are already in the stores, so why can't I decorate for Halloween and talk about nothing but costumes and candy? This last week I busted out my "Halloween Mix" CD while the kids and I were in the car. They are loving it and won't let me put another CD in. I introduced the kids to Thriller, thinking they might be a little scared by the scary voice and laugh at the end. Nope! They loved it and Eden kept saying, "I like that guy!" I remember dancing to Thriller as a kid, then running out of the room right before that scary guy laughed. Granted, I am pretty much a wimp, but still, I was surprised how much my kids already love scary Halloween stuff! Cool! Maybe if I show them the video...
Peter has consented to dress up as a panda this year at the kids' request, so I've got to figure that one out, but other than that, our costumes are pretty much lined up. Bring on the trick-or-treating!

In other news, we signed Jonah up for his first season of t-ball. He is so excited! Their first practice is tomorrow and their games start in Ocober! I'm sure that it will be quite entertaining. More to come!

Yay for Thriller! Kids must be coming braver too, instead of just smarter...

Matthew surprises me with the 'scary' stuff he likes too. Everytime we go in a store he wants to check out the Halloween stuff. He gets really excited!
'i like tha guy' hahaha! That is so something Matthew would say!

You are totally the Halloween guru! You go all out on costumes and you get really into it. Halloween is the holiday that I can skip, but your holiday spirit just might convert me.

I could never skip Halloween, although the prep for it is not my favorite, I love the actual day and festivities, you know the candy, costumes, cornbread, chili, ect. I love TV on Halloween because of all the scary songs and videos Michael has done, that day is pretty much "his day" in the TV/entertainment world. Some of the channels are dedicated to him the whole freakin day!....awesome.

Not a fan of Halloween...never have been. I would refuse to get Kinsie all dressed up if I didn't have to send a picture to her birthmom.
So, what is everyone going to be this year?

Yeah it's hard to get into it when the kids are babies, but someday it'll be really fun! We will be dressing up as: Peter- panda, Me-Tinkerbell, Jonah-skeleton, Eden-witch, Levi-pirate!

Cute! I can't wait to see how they all turn out! Especially Peter's get-up. If anyone could pull off making a panda costume it would be you :) Make sure you take lots of pics...if only for blackmail purposes haha.
