- Started out Friday morning making cookies for the sweet shop at our school auction dinner. These are yummy and taste like Thanksgiving.
- When the girls got home from school we carved our large pumpkin.
- Little tricksters at the door. Cee is Penelope, Kaye is a -friendly- witch, and Jae is a 50's girl.
- I think it's time to read about my camera functions. Don't know what happened here but the effect was passable so I posted. All our trick or treat action shots are funny like this. The second picture is a house nearby that displays their awesome carved pumpkins. Definitely have to see this every year.
- It was fun to stop at Starbucks on our way to a haunted house. Cider, hot chocolate, milk, misto, pike place - delight in a cup. btw, only 2 of the 5 made it through the haunted house opting for the 'little scare' as opposed to the 'full scare."
- A little stop while Dad walked back to get the truck. It was a fun night!
the rest of the weekend...
- 3 soccer games on Saturday
- Auction dinner Saturday night
- Rod got a little carried away and bid on a vacation for us. Two nights in Carmel with four tickets to the Monterey Bay aquarium - should be fun.
- While driving to lunch after Mass yesterday our Suburban just stalled. We were able to start it a couple of times to get closer to home but it finally pooped out completely about a mile from home. I got out and walked to get the truck while Rod and the girls stayed for AAA. Waiting for the verdict this morning to see what the damage is. ~it's the fuel pump, $900 ouch
- we finally made it to lunch (couldn't cancel that :), did some errands, naps, simple dinner, family rosary for the election, Adoration and the weekend was over.
...very full but satisfying.

What a fun weekend! I loved the girls costumes...very cute. I had to go back and read a caption again because I thought that YOU had carved all those pumpkins in front of the house.... not that I don´t thing you CAN but ..... am I digging myself in a hole here? lol Lets just say that I´m not even that ambitious! lol
Enjoy your vacation when it comes up!
The pictures turned out pretty cool, sort of like there are ghost floating around!
I have to say my DH also couldn't believe that you guys had carved all those pumpkins! I even thought so too, until I read the post!
What a fun weekend! Bidding on the silent auctions are always fun! Congratulations on Winning!
