Last One

I went to my last school costume parade today.  

At least the last one in which my own child will participate.  

I'm not sure if there was a mix-up, or if it was intended, but there were some kids coming, and some kids going.  It made it a little tricky to spot your own little pumpkin (haha), but lucky for me, Mar had a nice gap between her and the person in front of her.  Can you see her?

With all the crazy busy schedules going on around here, I nearly forgot about Halloween.  We were going to carve pumpkins this weekend, but didn't get around to it.  Maybe I'll try to help Mar knock one out after she gets home from school.  Or maybe I'll just pull out the trusty paint (possibly some glitter), and let her non-knife-wielding artistic side shine.  I heard that if you mix glitter with modge podge, then paint your pumpkin, you get a lovely result.   I will have to try and convince Mar.  HOWEVER, it really wouldn't feel like Halloween without the smell of burning pumpkin flesh.
Hmmmmm...

I've already eaten my pre-determined self-imposed wedding-times-two-diet amount of sugar {I like candy} for the day.  I hope I can resist the variety I'm sure Mar will procure this evening.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
