My favorite one, the spider.. I think i did a pretty good job.

The pumpkins, before carving them.

The cupcakes we bought.. They were delicious!



Hey Everyone,

I hope you all had a wonderful Halloween, we had a really good time. I did all of the pumpkin carvings, i left one aside for Hubby to carve and he might do that today. We took the kids trick-or-treating last night and they had a blast. Super Guy was very shy at first, he didn't want to say Trick-or-treat and he didn't want to say Thank you. After a couple of houses though, we were able to get him to say it. :) Boogie Man fell asleep so he just stayed in his stroller the whole night.

Today and tomorrow is "El Dia De Los Muertos", which means "Day of the dead". It is a Spanish holiday in which they remember all of their loved ones, who they have lost. It isn't a sad holiday, it is a happy holiday. They set up these alters and decorate them with things, that the person who died, liked. For example; their favorite food, drink, and whatever hobby they were into.

I think it is a great holiday and such a wonderful way to pay respects to that person. Today and tomorrow i will be thinking of all the people in my life that i have lost and when i think of them i will be thinking of only the good memories. I hope you all take some time and do the same.


Have a great day everyone!!
