OF COSTUMES AND CANDY

Trick or Treat!!! Did you guys made your rounds at your favorite neighborhood with your kids on Halloween? We did, we also had a small pizza gathering for the kids before we head on out the door.

The photo are of the kids in their costumes. From (L-R) Kelly the glow in the dark witch, Kaitlyn as Jessie the cowgirl, Kayla as the scary vampire princess and Joey as Lightning McQueen of Cars.

They were all so excited to get dressed in the costumes that they picked and get some candy. I just feel bad though that the turn out for houses that participated in the Halloween candy giving were not so good. It was actually pathetic and just sad. I know people are not oblige to give candy but Its just once in a year and kids really put a lot of effort in picking the costumes and dressing up. Younger trick or treater practice saying " Trick or Treat". This year it was just us and the Tobler kids since our neighbors went to another development to be with their family. It's such a joy to our hearts to see our kids enjoy running down the street and going from house to house. To see the delight on the faces of each child as they hold out the candy holder for some candy. Even with the cold air it did not stop them from having fun. All in all this year was fun and we are thinking of going to another development next year. I hope you guys had fun trick or treating this year,coz we sure did and got lots and lots of candy..

SHIVER ME TIMBERS!

Halloween is just among one of themost anticipated event that most children look forward to. Getting to wear costume, trick or treating, decorating the house for halloween and of course the consumption of candies with parents permission,lol. This year it was just the three of us, Ralph, Kaitlyn and ME. It was Kayal's turn to spend her Halloween with her mom this year. We missed her a lot but I know she is still having fun with her mom.

This year Kaitlyn was dressed up as a swash buckling, rebel little pirate. I never planned for her to get dressed up as a pirate. I was just checking out some outfit when I saw the one for her. The pirate costume just screamed Kaitlyn all over it and fit her personality to a T.

Meet Captain Kaitlyn the Pirate, the newest captain of the Black Pearl :

SUPER HEROES ABOUND

My appointment with the Chiropractor was extra fun today. I dressed Kaitlyn in her old costume last year which was little piglet. Hubby and Kaitlyn went with me but hubby stayed in the car since it was only going to take about 30 min max. I just had to take Kaitlyn inside with me. For the past appointments I knew that all the staff were dressing up as super heroes on Oct. 30, 2009. Before we even got inside the office we already saw bat girl getting into her bat mobile. I should have brought my camera and took pictures of the staff as well as Kaitlyn.The staff wore different costumes ranging from Zorro, Super mom, Cat woman, Soldier, Super mom, Vampire, Robin and a Phillies Pitcher. Thank goodness my daughter cooperated and was very good inside the office and just played in the kids corner. She would come up to where I would be from time to time. The staff are all so nice and accommodating. After my session we got to taste some of the Halloween spread for all the patients. What a way to fill an empty stomach in the morning,lol. All in all it was as much fun for Kaitlyn as well as for me just to watch her little face lit up.
