Halloween in Herriman

Hello all,

Yesterday was Halloween and I'm glad to say it's over. The girls absolutely loved it, though. We got back from the store a little late and so I was trying to feed the girls as trick-or-treaters were already at the door. This didn't help. So I finally got the kids to eat, and got their costumes on, when Matt got home. Off they went to gather candy. The past few years we've lived here have been really cold or snowing on Halloween, so we haven't had too many visitors. This year I expected it to be the same, so I only bought a small stash of candy. Well, ironically, last night was beautiful and not even that cold. There were droves of children and I ran out of candy within an hour - mid group of kids. Doh! I wasn't going to stick around and have angry kids knocking on my door all night, so I fled to my friends house and we all hung out there for a few hours. That was more fun anyway.

I'm just glad that it's all over now and we can move on to the Christmas season. I like that much better anyway. I prefer celebrating Christ and our family to ghosts and star wars characters any day. I can't wait to break out the Christmas tree! Bring on the egg nog and Christmas carols. I'm so excited!

Well, I gotta run. Take care and please post something so I have something else to read besides mine. :)
Love, StephM
