Halloween 2008

Let's admit to eachother that Halloween isn't as much fun as it used to be. I remember as a kid my favorite part of Halloween was dressing up in crazy costumes. So the costume part is still really fun for me but trying to make your 2-yr-old and your husband have as much fun as you do kindof ruins your own fun. Party poopers...

What Kaden really wanted to do instead of trick or treating.

I had fun dressing up and I took Kaden to a trunk or treat. It was a disaster. I will have to admit to something though. I put Kaden on the couch to draw his fake scruffy beard right before we were going to leave for the trunk or treat. Then the phone rang and I was talking to Beth in the kitchen for maybe 3-5 min. I came back and I found Kaden sleeping on the couch. What was I supposed to do? I spent hours getting dressed up and Kaden was all dressed up almost ready to go. If I didn't wake him up then we would miss it, but if I did wake him up then the tired monster Kade would be with me all night. I couldn't make up my mind until he rolled off the couch and I caught him before crashing, just enough julting to wake him up. I decided to go and we went to the trunk or treat. Kaden cried almost the whole time. Was is worth it? I still don't know. So now I have changed my mind about loving Halloween. I guess we will see what happens next year.
