Halloween

I'm a sucker for any excuse to dress my children up. I confess, they are at times my grown up dolls. (yikes.) Regardless, Halloween, besides having absolutely no good thing about it because it is by nature a pagan holiday, does have one good quality. Costumes.

World, meet my little Elmo, and Princess Fairy Ladybug.

They are the sweetest little dears, and at the end of the night, were running around my house literally in circles because Mommy had to dress them up and chalk them full of sugar so they would never sleep again.

I am not rethinking the trick or treating idea. I'm sure by next year Halloween I will forget how crazy this night was. But not now. I remember and so I share.

Annie's tongue is green from sugar candies. Joshua had pop with his pizza. (my Mom is now cringing I know.)

The evening went off mostly without a hitch, Elmo ended up wearing the Ladybug Princess's antennas, (an odd sight but it worked I guess) and Ladybug finally rid herself of her green tongue. All is well in crazy-town.
