Happy Halloween.

From the Mad Hatter, the White Rabbit, Tweedle Dum, and Alice.

We had a couple of spiders stop by.

Maddie and I decorated for the big day.  Better late than never.

Maddie's Locker.

I went to school to serve breakfast to Maddie's reading class, but stopped by her locker first.  How do these kids get in and out of their lockers when they are only a couple of inches wide?

Outside the Salvation Army Family Store.

We were just leaving Target

during a 20 minute downpour.  Wouldn't you know as soon as we pulled out of our parking spot, the rain let up.

Treats for teachers and bus drivers.

And one big chocolate mess.

Bat Cave.

Storytelling.

We attended a fun campfire storytelling event tonight at Meadow Farm.  The fire smelled wonderful and the stories were told to us by two Colonial costumed ladies.

Just need a Coke

and breakfast is ready. 

We picked out six pumpkins instead of our usual four.  Whole Foods had a great selection.

We love the ice dream cones.

Waiting for Jordan to finish up with her Key Club meeting.

There is a lot of beauty on campus.

Handmade.

Burning our handmade candles from the festival last Saturday.

One A'maize'ing Festival.

Kicking off Henrico County's 400 year anniversary.  This girls enjoyed making cornhusk dolls, embossing leather, learning how to dye cloth with items from natural (i.e. flowers, nuts, and even dead bugs), and also hand-dipping candles. 
I am totally in love with the hipstamatic app on my new iTouch.

First Middle School Dance.

The thought of going to the dance was more fun than the actual dance was.  They called for a ride home 40 minutes after I dropped them off. 

Taken with my new iTouch loaded with the hipstamatic app.  LOVE THIS!!

Equipment Malfunction.

I'd be okay to never again be reminded of the life-threatening complications that can occur even with good diabetes management.

Everyone loves a parade!
