That time of year....

Well, its that time of year again. It feels like Halloween is long gone and everyone is already thinking about Christmas when it isn't even Thanksgiving yet! I love Halloween, its my favorite holiday. This year was the greatest yet! The temp was 62 degrees and gorgeous and it was a Friday night, just like it should be every year!
We headed over to the our friends/neighbors Rich and Kim's to scarf down some pizza before heading out at 5:30 sharp for trick or treating. Grace decided to be a scary witch this year and Owen had a hand me down spider costume that was too cute. Our friends have 4 kids, Ella which is a month almost to the day younger than Owen, Addie 4, Kristi 5 and Becca who is 8.
We all joined up with our other neighbor friends Tami, Kenny and Sam and hit the streets running, literally! Those kids were on the run from one house to the next all night till 7pm!! We hit every house in the neighborhood including the new phase! The kids had a great time collecting their candy while the adults trick or treated for beer and traveling jello shots provided by our fellow neighbors! We headed back that evening to Rich and Kim's, with the kids all playing together in the basement the adults enjoyed a night full of a million laughs! It was a great evening for both kids and adults! We are truly lucky to have such great friends and neighbors! I thank my lucky stars that our kids are in such a great neighborhood environment with such a fun place to live and little worries! We are truly lucky and blessed, I live for these days!
