wish we could do it all over again...

Halloween is still my favorite holiday. I love the weather, the parties, the creativity, the late nights, the candy, the face paint, and the excitement. I also love when it's over because it means that Thanksgiving and Christmas are right around the corner. 2009 is almost here and I don't know HOW that happened. How is it already November?

We had a fabulous weekend vacation. I am not about to post the thousands of pictures we've taken over the last few days because..... it would just make everyone jealous. and because the battery to my camera is dead. and because I am tired. Who decided that ONE hour of day light savings was enough? If I was in charge, I would give the world [at least] an extra 24 hours of free time. that's why you should vote for me. I am still undecided for the big election and may just pencil in my own name on the ballot. princess leia for prez.

For those of you who found yourself bitterly disappointed by my Halloween recap, make your way over to my friend Suzanne's blog. I take credit for converting her to the blogging world and I must say it's a happier place since she's joined. She's not very good at keeping in touch (or winning at card games) but she's no amateur blogger. If I had a blue ribbon for "Best Halloween Post" I would pin it on A Halloween Crime Story. Because after all, real dedication is when your oldest child becomes an actual vampire on Halloween night.
