Halloween highlights

Nov 01

I'm feeling awfully lazy at the moment, so in lieu of a real post I give you a list of highlights from this Halloween weekend:

  • The girls exclaimed repeatedly, "Happy DeeDee (birthday), Halloween!" Clearly we've had some holiday cross-contamination.
  • We went to a kiddie Halloween party on Saturday afternoon and I let Belly eat a couple cookies. I have heard "Cookie, please!" about 763,921 times since then.
  • As we were about to get ready for said party, I had the brilliant idea of changing up our costumes. So Belly and I went as "a little bit country" and Buggy and Dude were "a little bit rock 'n roll." Is it good or bad that Dude and I can easily outfit ourselves in either of these persuasions? (Sadly, I forgot to bring my camera to the party and don't have pictures of our switcheroo.)
  • I balanced the checkbook for the first time since July. THAT was a chore.
  • The girls were introduced to Elvis the dog and Poncho the bunny at my aunt and uncle's house today. YOU try to decipher between "Daddy's office" and "Doggy Elvis." It ain't easy.
  • The Packers lost to Brett Favre and the Vikings today. Ack.
  • I've gained 23 pounds since Friday eating candy, cookies, cake, pie, dips and chips, bacon-bleu-cheese burgers with french fries, beer-boiled-then-grilled bratwurst and potato salad, and drinking lots and lots of beer. You know the expression "you are what you eat?" Well, I think it's pretty obvious that I ate the brats.
And with that lovely picture, I bid you goodnight.
