Halloween

Betsy and I went over to her cousin Michelle's house for Halloween last night. We took Jacob, Theresa, and Austin around the neighborhood. It was a fun night. But all I could think about was our house.

You see, Michelle lives right down the street from our new house. The new house that we are still waiting to get into. As I saw all the boring houses with no halloween decorations, I pictured the scare-fest that could be. Or will be I should say.

I had forgotten how much I enjoy Halloween. We used to really throw down a good show on Halloween in my family. The whole haunted house thing. And I can't wait to try some of that myself. Since I have a house now and all.

Of course, I did see a lot of younger kids on the streets. So what do you say? Is Halloween still allowed to be scary? Or are we doomed to all treats and no tricks?!

Be careful.. Remember the Halloween that the police were called in to investigate our hijinks?

Uh Chris and Lew....POLICE? what Hijinks? Oh dear, the things a mother learns years later.
Anyway...I vote for scarey fun like we did at our house...that you can tame down a bit if younger children come through. Glad you remember those days with fondness Lew...now tell Mama about the police. Love ya Mum

That was certainly a halloween to remember. And I know I told my mom about it. She just doesn't remember. I tell that story quite a lot. Just to impress people with my rebellious ways.

good times, good times...

Lewis - Rebellious? That is like the old Scottish word for tuning bagpipes - oxymoron.
