Well, the kids had fun trick or treating last night. They got a decent amount of candy. More than any little kids need,for sure.
We went to a local church and did the trunk or treating. It was nice to just be able to park the car and do it all in one spot. Each car had their trunk open and decorated and they would sit or stand there and hand out candy. So, rather than go door to door, in and out of the car, we went parking spot to parking spot. The only bad thing was it started misting shortly after we arrived and so it was a wet night. but, a fun one. They even served hot dogs, popcorn and drinks. It was nice. They also had two bounce houses, which is cool, but really, i didn't think it a good idea to be jumping around in a bounce house with halloween costumes on. sEems rather dangerous to me. So, we skipped that, much to the childrens' sadness. They quickly got over it though, when we left there to do a little more trick or treating...of course, just to family's houses at that point. Which, i just realized, oh my gosh, i forgot to take my kids to my sister's house. Ugh, now i feel like a complete ass. It is so hard when you have little kids, everyone wants you to stop by so they can see your kids.
Oh and the field trip was fun. My mom and sister went along as well. We went on a hayride through the trails lined with characters like The INcredibles, Dora, Clifford, Snoopy/Charlie Brown, Fantastic 4, Transformers, Nemo, Pirates of the carribean, Spiderman, Superman, etc. The characters are actually made from wood and painted by a local artist. He does a fantastic job. Then, everyone got to pick a pumpkin from the pumpkin patch. Then we toured the the cider mill and watched how apple cider is made, went out to see the animals,t hen had lunch. We kicked the whole thing off with cider and donuts.
Makenneh seems to feel good during the day, then gets to coughing at night, in her sleep. She is still playing and running and having a good time while awake.
Well, I have to finish up my project for my multicultural class and i need to clean. So im of fhere!

That darn drainage always gets them at night. :( Are you giving her something like Benadryl for it? It will help knock her out too. ;)
I'm glad the kids had fun trick or treating. :) We might have to slowly start to through Z's candy away. He will never eat it! He has candy from parades, his party, the fall festival, and trick or treating!
Sounds like you were at New Covenant for the Truck or Treating. That's the church that we attend and I'm so bummed that I didn't get to see you!
