I'm a few days late but I wanted to post about our happy, happy Halloween!
A few days before the holiday Eden came to work with me for our annual Halloween party. Everyone brings in their kids (grandkids, nieces, nephews, etc) for a costume parade, magic show, pizza, Goldfish, snacks, and LOTS of candy. It's crazy but it's really fun - there's something about having a ton of kids around, and seeing people with their kids, that seems to remind everyone that we've all got lives outside the office! Eden was adorable, dressed as her favorite animal - a duck!
Our good friend Mr. B (Eden calls him "Bubba") was born on Halloween, so we went over to his house for an early dinner to celebrate his 8th birthday. Since it was a beautiful day (Why, hello, 70 degrees!! I was worried I wouldn't see you again until May!!) we walked - they live at the end of the block. Since OSU had a big game against UT and we needed all the help we could get (which ended up not helping...) Eden dressed up as an OSU cheerleader:
(Funny thing about this is, this was B's sister H's costume. Eden's costume
last year was B's first costume!)
We had a great time at dinner. Eden played with the kids at the party and loved playing pin the tail on the donkey! After dinner we walked home. On the way we passed a house with people sitting outside handing out candy, and they asked us to stop, so Eden had her first trick-or-treat. She got Daddy a Reese's and a Starburst! And then we stopped downstairs for a quick hello to our neighbor.
