Two days til Halloween(rain or shine!uggg) three days til the movie!!!! woo hoo! G panicked this AM when she realized she hadn't sufficiently represented the Holiday in her fashion choices this week. BUT... then we got to school and she realized in the dark of her room...she picked her reg old stripey tights, and not the ones with spiders crawling up her legs!! Tears and drama...ya know, if the costume isn't just right!

object of interest= constant reciting of her Alice in wonderland lines...which she now knows well enough to "run" on her own! golf claps all around folks!! Golf claps.

halloweek day one, originally uploaded by chickenafro.

Sorry for the lapse! We had a pretty crazy week. This weekend was our Halloween party in the barn and visit from Kim, Lou,Sofie, and Stella. So much fun. Lots of pics over at our flickr. On the way to school we heard someone on the radio refer to this as Halloweek. G LOVED that!! Is it wrong that she already gets really excited when she has 1/2 days at school.? ha. She said she's "sooo psyched to get home early today."
object of interest= one of many Peanuts gang tee-shirts in her collection.
(God bless Target!)
