Friday's Fun and Food...

The eating extravaganza started in the fourth grade classroom on Friday afternoon...it was the last healthy food to be had for several hours... So how obscene is this? A pillowcase of halloween candy Nicole collected on Friday evening. I enjoyed the Peanut M&M's. Noone likes the Milk Duds...Someone should give out toothbrushes.

Me and Nicole together. You can see I have added blond highlights and am letting my short hair grow out a little. I have finally made peace with my curls. I have still not made peace with Nicole's curls and the silky shampoo works well, to a degree...it would work better if she lathered longer and then actually used the pick all the way through. Her hair is so beautiful, but totally on my nerves in the tangled frizzed out state it is. I know it shouldn't even be registering on my radar, but it is.

Happy Halloween

At the moment I am highly irritated, because this was to be a mostly visual post, but for some reason my card reader isn't working. More technology woes...

Last night was the great Halloween Parade in Danville. Omigosh, fire trucks, bands, cheerleading squads (including Nicole's) and sports teams (including Tianna's softball team). The participants on the floats toss candy and kids scramble from the sidelines to collect yet one more tootsie roll. The only problem wasn that Nicole was long finished before Tianna even got out of the gate...

Tonight is the Trick or Treating and I just don't even want to see what Nicole comes home with...none of us need the calories. Her sister went to the football game.

I got the great end of the bargain. I am home dispensing candy while Howie is out supervising phase two of candy collection for the group of five kids that Nicole is a part of.

Tomorrow Nicole and I are going to Ithaca to visit Matt. Can't wait.

Now back to the comment column of the last two posts to continue the conversation.
