Marital Talk

Look, you don’t wanna know why I’m wimping out, just take my word for it…I am.

But, first of all, here’s a few fleeting thoughts.  Do you guys know about the Halloween Witch?  If not, you can read about it many places, but I’ll tell you quickly here.  Basically, we come home on Halloween night and the kids open and eat candy for about an hour.  No eating while out trick or treating so…they eat for about an hour.

Then, I give them a quart size ziplock bag with their name on it and they pick out their favorite pieces and put them in the bag.  They are reminded that the more candy they leave for the Halloween Witch, the bigger the toy will be.  So, they bag their candy up and leave the rest spread on the floor for the Halloween Witch to take.

The Halloween Witch then takes the candy to work with him on Monday…hehehehe.  There you have it…Here’s what "mah stash", as Jace called it…

The kids keep…(well they think they are, I’m going to work on those bags before I go to bed..)

But, the greatest part of any holiday is your family.  Am I correct?  Can I get someone to agree with me here for once?

And, the Halloween Witch has left a huge Tonka Truck Toy of some sort in exchange for the candy.

So, my mom did indeed load them up with a bunch of candy.  But, they also got this lovely Easter Egg with a note it…yes, an Easter Egg, what else are Grammy’s for?

Another awesome highlight or two coming later………..
