Halloween 2008

Halloween day we got up and went to Golden Hill for a playgroup party. The kids had so much fun running around and playing with their friends.
I am amazed at how much the playgroup has grown over the years.

Halloween night did not start out very well. I started a load of laundry and went outside to carve pumpkins. Liesl came up to me and said something about the toilet, so I walked towards the bathroom and heard the water spilling out of the toilet and backing up into the bathtub. It was so gross and not what I wanted to deal with right before my mom, dad and friends were coming over. I got it all cleaned up and had a plumber out today, but we have a sewer problem. My friends came over and passed out the candy while we took the kids trick-or-treating. It was fun and the kids were really cute.
When we got home I let the kids eat as much candy as they wanted, then bagged it up and took it over the the neighbors house. We then got the kids in their pajamas and took them to the front porch to see what the Great Pumpkin left for them.
