Coming up with a costume for Ian at Halloween each year is always a challenge. It has to be something he'll wear, and not be distracted by. As you know he is VERY much into the movie UP...so this year... Russell ;0). It was an easy costume, thanks to my very hardworking Eagle Scout of a husband. The house is the best gift a friend could ever give Ian...it has flown many places. The balloons added the final touch. Eva wanted to be a witch. She told me she has wanted to be this for several years, and I "wouldn't let her". So this year, she picked out her own costume. I was only allowed hair and make up duties. I was strolling through Target one day and came upon the "dog" witch costume... It screamed "Purchase Me" for Molly... Come on she matched Eva ;0). We went to Trunk or Treat at the church, and Ron took the kids around Trick or Treating... All in all... A successful Halloween...
I wish I had Thanksgiving photos: But I do not ;0) We had an enjoyable day spent with Dan and Annette and Morgan... The boys weighed in for the poundage contest... I was promised that if I did no one would look. So I did, only to have Ron turn around and catch it...with a comment springing forth out of his mouth...Dang!! He was given the silent treatment after that!! I love that we have family only 45 minutes away... It makes holidays much sweeter!!
I know this is a blurry photo...but it's the only one I could get. Ian and Eva participated in Bowling with the Special Olympics. Ian LOVED it... Eva had a better time toward the end as she improved and could beat Ian...She has the Willis competitive nature. It doesn't take much to make Ian happy... I caught him one day last week after getting disciplined, finding joy in using my lipstick as a pin...and a piece of dog food as the ball. Needless to say we find all sorts of interesting bowling set ups around here... It was good for Ian to have something for him...Next up basketball!!!
