Angels on Either Side

Right now, I'm on the floor in my nephew's room. To my left is one sweet sleeping niece, to my right one sweet sleeping nephew. God I love these kids and I've missed them! The baby can sit up on his own and clap his hands, all dimply and amazing. Halloween was a blast, with two parades (one replete with marching bands and everything!) and lots of trick or treating. We'd leave one house, and Charlotte would ask where are we going now, and I'd say another house and her face would just light the way throught the dark. She LOVES candy! And Max, poor Max, won't TOUCH chocolate. Thank goodness for those chocolate free houses!

I didn't finish the Deadhead sock before the end of Socktober. I'm about to start on the toe. It will be done tomorrow. Once again I'm freaking out about enough yarn - but I'll stop at the post office to check it on their scale. I'll be back sometime tomorrow, I think, with Halloween pictures. Dark Vader and the Butterfly Princess don't disappoint.

Happy Halloween!

I love to hear how much you dote on those kids! They must adore having such a cool aunt. Enjoy the rest of your stay.

Max must have a defective gene. Although I remember people in my life who don't like chocolate. I never could understand those folks. Actually, my daughter didn't like it much as a child. She's making up for lost time now, though.

I agree, I love reading how much you love those kids too. It really "shows".

I'm glad you had fun with the kids. That's the best way to spend Halloween!

Chocolate free house? Does not compute.
Happy Halloween to you too!
