I loved Rowan's "Happy Halloween" at the end! Wished you could keep the pumpkins forever--those are true works of art...designed by the kids' own hands. I loved this!
Thanks guys :) The kids had a wonderful time (except for Sheridan during the pumpkin-gutting) and Halloween went well. They got enough candy from trick or treating to keep them hyperactive until Christmas.
Zack and Sam made Tigger do all the pumpkin gutting, too. It was too gooey for their little constitutions to handle. Zack carved his own. Sam laid hers out and then directed her minion (read: MOM) to finish it up. I'm still trying to break my 20-year old of that habit. She still wants to hand things to Mom to finish...not! LOL
D. Nathan Hilliard lives in Spring, Texas with his veterinarian wife, two children, and two cats. He draws his inspiration from a childhood living in different small Texas towns, accented by teen years spent in western New Mexico. He has experienced life through a diverse collection of jobs ranging from meter reading and being an assistant manager at a convenience store, to working at cotton gins, window factories, and uranium mills. After coming down with Charcot Marie Tooth (CMT) at the turn of the century, Mr. Hilliard now happily settles for tending house, raising his kids, and exploring the field of writing.

ReplyDeleteWhy is it that the same kid you can never get to go wash his hands, gets all dainty about getting them gooey in the first place?
