Happy Halloween....

Well..it's almost halloween and I am MOST excited. If you know me well, you know that I am not a big Halloween fan. I don't like all the scary stuff and I'm not big on dressing up. Growing up in my family, Halloween was just not a big deal. I remember going to the church for the fall festival and that's about it. Mom didn't really like Halloween and I can remember her saying that it was the devil's holiday! Ha! So, I guess that's where I get it from! Although, I do love staying at home and giving out candy to all the trick or treaters!
But, this year Jamie and I are getting to go to Ohio to see all the munchkins.. aka.. the nieces and nephews. I have never been up to trick or treat with them, so I am MOST excited to get to this year. Mom and Dad got to go last year, but not me. So, thankfully halloween is on a weekend and we can all go. I can't wait to see what they are gonna be.. and, yes.. I'll post the pics when we get back!

So, last Sat. night Jamie and I went to a halloween party! Our good friend's, The Watkin's always host this party and it is always a fun get together! Jamie and I have gone for the past 4 years now and we usually go as a "couple." But, this year.. I just wasn't feeling it. Jamie was tired of being "the good husband" and going along with all my ideas and this year he decided he wanted to be something scary.. and I was NOT doing that! So, he got some face paint and painted himself into a zombie.. He did a really good job too. He even had the blood capsules coming out of his mouth.. I know, gross! I couldn't decide what to be.. I really wanted to be strawberry shortcake but I couldn't find a costume for under $50. Then, I wanted to be Hannah Montana but I waited too long to figure out what to wear, so thankfully Wal Mart came in handy. I saw this cute costume and just went with it.. a strawberry diaquiri! We had a good time but missed seeing a bunch of the couples who weren't able to come this year.. I guess there's always next year.. huh? So, is anyone dressing up this year and if so, what are you gonna be? I always love to hear.... I hope you all have a safe and fun halloween weekend!
