Happy Halloween!


This weekend we were visited by our niece, Brandon, who lives up in Washington. She didn't have school on Friday and was able to come visit from Thursday to Saturday evening. She spent Friday with me at school participating in all the fun kindergarten Halloween activities. At the end of the day I asked her what she thought about it. Her reply was, "Those kids are SO naughty!" So insightful! Friday afternoon was spent buying candy to hand out to all the trick-or-treaters and carving a jack-o-lantern to place in the driveway to let people know we had candy! Brandon dressed up as Cleopatra, she loves anything Egyptian! She was quite a hit, everyone she visited felt honored to have the ancient Egyptian queen on their doorstep.
Saturday morning we woke up and took a lovely walk through the park and to the donut shop! What a treat I got when I found my donut was fresh out of the oven! YUM! Well worth the walk in the rain! The rest of the day was spent around the house and in the hot tub but all too soon the time came to take Brandon to be picked up by her Nana. Hard to tell who had more fun!! Hope your Halloween was "Spook"tacular!

Loved the Jack O Lantern. Good job. You are so lucky to have had the "Queen of the Nile" at your house!
