Halloween

With 70 degree temperatures on Monday we were ready for our first "warm" Wisconsin Halloween since moving here.  I guess will have to wait until next year, as Mother Nature decided to not play so nice, and we hit a high of 30 something today with wind chills in the 20's.  Luckily we were prepared with flannel lined jeans and winter coats all stuffed under our costumes.  I was rather poofy, and Lily couldn't move her arms very high due to all of the layers, but it is a small sacrifice to make when candy is on the line and the weather just won't cooperate.  This year we couldn't wait to don our costumes, me as Bumblebee from Transformers, and Lily as a witch.  We hit up a new neighborhood this year, and it worked out perfect!  We ran into so many people we knew from school, and got to hang our with our friend, Elise.  We ran from house to house scoring huge candy bars and gummy eye balls.  We even visited the neighborhood haunted house where Lily transformed into a rather wicked witch.  We ended our night at a friend's house where we celebrated her birthday and indulged in pizza and chocolate cake.  It was a great way to end a spooktacular Halloween!
