to turn the radio on and find Christmas music starting
like last year when that was all they played until
Christmas day. Thankfully there was not any. I am not
a scrooge but I just like Christmas music after
Thanksgiving. However, when I looked out my
window this morning and it was snowing or trying to
snow, I almost changed my mind.
Can't believe Halloween has come and gone. We
had perfect weather for the trick or treaters---very
mild. All we needed was a light jacket and then
not until we were almost finished. I love being
invited to go with my grandkids and their parents.
It brings back fond memories of when my
children were small and I'd go with them while
their Dad stayed at home and passed out candy.
While the children all dressed up we adults
just wore hats. I got to wear the witch's hat this
year. Parents and children all dress up in my
daughter's neighborhood and really decorate.
This was Ty's first year and when he realized you
got candy he was off and running---not the least
bit hesitant. We could hardly keep up with him.
Just one of the many fun decorated houses we stopped
at. Had to snap a picture of my daughter, SIL
and two of the grandkids.
Today my house is looking rather blah with the
Halloween decorations put away. There are still
a few fall things left out to enjoy. Before I know it,
it will be time to pull out the Christmas decorations.
Take care,
Nola
Hi Nola!
ReplyDeleteWhat cute little trick-or-treaters!! I can remember so many fun time going door to door when I was a child! We did trunk-or-treat at the church, I ran out of candy after about 1/2 hour of steady kids!
I can hardly believe that it's November! It has been so cold here, and the wind is terrible, coming from the North, brrrrr!
My son's best friend and his wife are expecting a baby on 11/11/11 - they got married on 1/1/11 - too funny!
Hugs,
Barb
I was a bit sneaky this year...I just turned my Halloween Jack-o-lanterns around and now I have pumpkins to display for Thanksgiving! LOL
ReplyDeleteI loved the pictures and thoughts. It is awesome that you could enjoy going with your grandchildren trick or treating. I only have one family that is close enough to do this but it is still a drive.
ReplyDeleteYes, we are now counting down the days until Christmas. My youngest daughter called yesterday to tell me that they were going to come for Christmas. I am way excited about that. We are flying to Missouri for Thanksgiving with my other two daughters families. Lots of activity this time of year.
Blessings to you and keep on enjoying the moments.
What fun it must have been to go Trick or Treating with your grandchildren.
