"Please put candy in my bag," Natalie said when our dear friend Charity opened her door on Halloween... no 'trick or treat'... just straight to the point... why bother with tradition or pleasantries... get right to the point... she is my daughter after all!
Halloween was dear. J.D. was superman (pjs that Uncle Drew gave us last Christmas...) Natalie was a dinosaur (not a princess... a fairy... or something sweet) she was a 'mean dinosaur' according to her. Carson was the pumpkin. Now everyone has been this pumpkin. Guess it is time to retire the costume. Hard to think of getting rid of it... they have all been it... it is like getting rid of a piece of my heart... and yet, keep it... for how long... till when... to do what with... oh, the delimnas of motherhood.
"Carson-ni-ni " as his siblings have nicknamed him. 
Pumpkins carved at the Senior High Pumpkin Carving Night! We put candles in them- turned them around to face our front door and lit them each night for a week before Halloween. The kids would rush to the door to make sure the candles were still glowing each night.
Look at all that candy... that is only 20 minutes of trick or treating!
My precious dinosaur! A boy can she growl!
The trio!
