Boo

So, I've been in total denial that winter is coming, and Halloween just snuck up on me. It's no secret to some that it's not my favorite holiday, but I don't really mind the costumes and trick-or-treating. My only complaint is that it's turned into a season that requires you to spend endless amounts of money on decorations, t-shirts, school parties, dance parties, and, to top it all off, the instructors for all of the classes I take at the gym have been using Halloween music for 2 weeks! I can't get pumped to work out for an hour every day if I have to listen the the Monster Mash.
So because I was in my denial, we weren't as prepared for dressing up as we usually are. Derek and Janie's costumes didn't get finalized until a couple of days before the 31st. Fortunately, the weather was as nice as it ever is on Halloween in Utah, and I think everyone had a good time.

Meghan was getting just as much grief as she was cheers for her Yankees attire. They were nice enough to pull out a Halloween night victory in Game 3 of the World Series.

This is not my favorite way to see my son. Derek was so excited for this costume and I think it was gross. This year, he took off with his 3 friends for trick-or-treating and I just hope they didn't terrorize the neighborhood too much. His mother told him to be nice.

Janie was so happy to decide on being a rock star. I was so excited about the $5 Rock Star kit we found at Walmart.

We had a great time carving pumpkins Halloween morning. I want to make sure that everyone knows that the Mickey pumpkin was Mark's creation. I think we can conclude that, although he pretends to not like anything Disney, he's the biggest fan of all of us.
