Happy You Know What!

Sugar highs and blown up thighs! Happy Halloween Everyone!

This year, my kids chose very creative costumes, which got my wheels turning trying to figure out how to make their costumes. Behold, Gretchen-the worm (don't ask) Becket- the chameleon (because he likes scary things with sharp teeth) and Micah- the corn on the cob (because she's a maizing, get it?)

It's so exciting! We're not trick or treating our own house, it's just all the houses look the same where we live.

Our friends love Halloween and do a great job decorating

Oh! I forgot to mention that the kids also needed Halloween costumes for their pets. What has this household come to?

Hope everyone was happy and safe!
