Halloween

Today is the day and there will be no trick or treating for us. We have tried it in the past but for some reason, here in Kentucky, they like to make their yards into graveyards with dead bodies hanging in trees, people chasing you down the road with chain saws, and others jumping out at you as you pass the garage... it is the creepiest thing and not to mention, it has turned our girls off to the whole idea. So, we have decided to make this night just a family night. We are probably going to dinner and then maybe a movie which sounds so much more pleasant than a night of walking in the cold... looking at bodies hanging from trees and coming out of the ground.......Can you imagine turning your yard into a graveyard? That just seems wrong to me....maybe it is just what rednecks in Kentucky do on Halloween!

That is freaky. Luckily our block is decked out with pleasant scarecrows..we live on a block of people in their mid 50's. Have fun at your movie. It doesnt' matter what you do, as long as it is together. Those are the memories your girls will cherish.

Gross!!! Our neighbors decked out their house, yard and cars!! The boys like all the spiderwebs, but the graves, etc. are not necessary! We didn't treak or treat either, we just had a Harvest Party at church...
