Our Halloween Day

I got home from work (where we had two really good parties!) around 3:30ish. And right away Quinn, Liam, and I headed out for some trick-or-treating while Mike stayed home and handed out candy.


After a few houses I thought we'd go drop off Liam and head out for more.
But first we needed to grab a few pictures of the boys. We got Liam to sit there by giving him chocolate.
Later we found out that Liam is, in fact, allergic, or sensitive to, chocolate - he now has a horrible diaper rash. After the pictures Quinn and I ditched Liam and went out for more CANDY! About an hour later we came home, I put Liam to bed, had some dinner, and Mike sat outside with Quinn waiting for more trick or treaters.
I could hear Mike telling the spooky stores and singing spooky songs. "Who has my golden arm? Who has my golden arm?" and "There was an old woman all skin and bones...."

All in all it was a great day - perfect weather, work wasn't too crazy - in fact - everything would have been perfect had I not felt like crap all day. I was feeling better (or doped up on pain medicine) after work, which is why I took the boys trick-or-treating. But then, I sat down while Quinn was outside and it hit me. My face hurts, my nose won't stop running, I keep sneezing, and of course the skin on my nose is all dried up from all the blowing. I called the doc. today, they sent in a prescription, but by the time I dragged myself to the pharmacy it was closed! Argh! Oh - but more good news - we went to some Halloween stores this morning looking for discounted costumes - and I got the best clown costume ever! So cute! I can't wait until next year!
