Halloween!

 Happy Halloween, everyone!  My little munchkins enjoyed their night.  Even with the rain and wind!  Nick, aka Lightning McQueen, was the first to give up, making it to 2 street of our subdivision.  Emma, aka Snow Fairy, made it 3 plus a small cul-de-sac.  Ryan, aka Iron Man, made it through the whole subdivision.  They raked in a ton of candy, which unfortunately, I have been consuming!  Thankfully, we had talked at least a week before Halloween about us sending half of our candy to my cousin, Aaron, who is serving the Marines and is somewhere in the Middle East at the moment.  The kids really liked the idea of sending it to someone who would give it out to kids who don't get candy very often.  I was very proud of them for that.

Other than that, we are now on week 7 of the 10 week Kris Is Gone Forever travel.  I'm hanging in, but breaking down very quickly.  This past weekend, I got some time alone including a massage and getting my hair done.  This next weekend, I get mommy time at the hotel alone for 1 night and with a friend the second - with some shopping on Sunday!  I'm very much looking forward to it!
