I'm so glad this week is over. I really hate Halloween. I've never liked it. I thought if I had fun with it and dressed up this year, I would get in the spirit of things. Nope. Didn't work.
I think having kids made me hate it even more because there is so much effort, money, and time invested into this holiday...which, I might add, also has a stupid premise. So, after countless costume parties, parades, and gaining five pounds on the candy I had to keep purchasing over and over again, I'm grateful this month is finally over. Yes, the kids had fun. Yes, I enjoyed watching them have fun. Yes, I have lots of pictures. Yes, they look just like everyone else's pictures.
Now that this day is over, I'm getting excited for the upcoming months. I have so much I'm looking forward to. In just a few days we will elect a new, looooong over-due President. A few weeks later I go to Mexico. Then we celebrate our anniversary and of course, Thanksgiving. Then comes my favorite holiday-Christmas. It is such a "feel good" holiday. People are generally much nicer, more thoughtful, and of good cheer Fa-la-la-la la. I love the spirit of giving, family unity, and 2 weeks of no school. I also love Christmas music...it can never start too early. My cd's are locked 'n' loaded in the car and ready to go starting tomorrow.
So goodbye October. Goodbye nice weather. Goodbye Halloween...finally.

Funny you should mention it- this week I've been thinking that I sort of hate Halloween, too. Then last night, trick or treating through the rain with my kids, it was confirmed. Dumb holiday, but whatever. The kids like it, so what do you do?
So word 'em up, lady. Welcome, November!
Happy feaking Halloween! Your kids looked very cute! Have fun in Mexico. Take lots of pictures.
