Report Cards

Report cards came out and yippie kai-yeaa ki-ooooo. They are good, good, good!!!
The best they have been in a long time. Lots to celebrate as my three boys are doing well and we are loving it.

It is quite cold out today, snow, rain, sleet and whatever else wants to come is coming down. The weather is not that bad for this time of the year. It is by the way November 15th and it has been quite pleasant this fall..

Margie and I had our Silpada Jewelry party last night. 16 friends showed up and we had a great time. The Silpada lady is trying to get us to sell the stuff and I am not sure how I feel about it at the moment. Margie and I would like to go to a meeting which will be on 12th of December to see what it all entails. It was nice both of my sister in laws came as well as many of my friends. Wonderful night! Plus we both get some free jewelry!! Yea!

Trick or Treat is not what it used to be

Last night was Halloween in my neighborhood. I walked around with my friend Renee and shadowed our sons while they ran around the neighborhoods collecting candy. They both dressed up as Football players. Both played Football this year for the local teams.

Halloween is not what it used to be. Several years we had over 100 ghosts and goblins trick-or-treating at our door. Last night was very different. There was only about 25 kids in the two hours it was offered. When I was a kid we would go out from dark till after 10pm. The bustle of activity was unbelievable. There were kids and waiting parents on every street. Fun! I'd like to remember Trick-or-treating as it was when I was a kid.
