Halloween

-
As per tradition, Halloween begun this year with the annual carving of the pumpkins - followed shortly by Michael putting out the Halloween decorations - or as Will calls them "scary."  He loves looking at the decorations.  They scare him so badly, but he just can't look away.  This year we also walked him up the street to look at Mr. Englar's decorations.  He decorates in a big way.











Halloween at work.  The Clerks were Crayons.  They even made Judge a Captain America crayon tip and made me a Harry Potter crayon tip.

This year we went to Dustin and Elena's for Trick-R-Treating. Michael and I dressed as Dr. Sattler and Dr. Grant from the original Jurassic Park.  Finn and Sam were characters from Black Panther and Will was Spiderman.





Finn and Sam ran all over the neighborhood collecting candy.  Will was a bit more cautious.  He didn't want to go door to door.  Instead, he would rather that I go to the door and get him a sucker.  We finally made walk to the door and get his own sucker.  He literally picked out a dum-dum at every single stop.  Then he would suck on the dum-dum - but only for as long as it took for him to secure another one.  Once he got a new one he would open it and hand me the one he was eating.  This went on for hours.  Will picks terrible Halloween Candy.

Today we woke up at 6:30 to prepare for our big day at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. The shuttle from the hotel left for the park at 8:00 meaning that we had to be downstairs and ready to go at 7:45. At 7:30 we realized that we had to book our spot on the shuttle the night before. Oops. For two people with jobs requiring close attention to detail we completely fall apart in our personal life. Fortunately we were able to purchase a ticket and catch the 8:00 shuttle anyway. The shuttle ride was interesting; we ended up sitting behind a young couple that could have left about 90% of their PDA in their hotel room and it still would have been too much for my taste. When we got to the park we noticed our ticket required that we show I.D. Well, I didn't bring my purse with me. Oops. After reading and rereading the fine print, we lawyerly types figured out an interpretation that would allow me to get into the park without producing photo i.d. We geared up for the fight

Wednesday night I got a strange phone call from Michael; he asked if I could get an ice pack and a couple ibuprofen ready for him.  Check it out . . .   He went to the doctor Thursday morning and came home with a boot, a pressure sock and a pair of crutches.  Looks like he will be out of commission for approximately two months.

On Sunday morning we slept until 9:30!  Finn was up with the sun, of course, but Sam slept until a little after 9:00. When we got up the sun was shining so we decided to hang the boys gourd bird house from Mr. Gene.  So far we have really enjoyed going to church on Sunday night.  Finn specifically told me that he likes night church better because he can get up and play.  The boys had a pajama party at school today.  It was in honor of Ms. Jenn's last day before maternity leave.  Finn was very excited to show his friends his godzilla feet. Big morning for Finn.  Last night was the first night that we have not put a nighttime pull-up on Finn.  He woke up with a dry bed!
