This is Halloween!

I love Halloween! I started the day with getting my workout out of the way so I could concentrate on our Halloween festivities. I started soaking some dried beans for the chili I wanted to make. I made bread bowls from scratch to serve the chili in and I made caramel from scratch for caramel apples. This was Ezra's plate after dinner. He must be getting sick because he didn't eat a bite. I had to take a picture before I threw it away because my bread bowls turned out awesome and delicious. The kids also said the best part of the chili was the beans- I almost died.

Jeebs had the brilliant idea to haul the kids around in the trailer so trick or treating would go faster this year than last year. No, they were gone for over 2 hours.

 I was a ghost, again, which is lame, but I scared the beegeezes out of a group of little girls. Their dads were impressed and took my picture with them.
Jeebs was a rockstar. It didn't even compare to his first idea. He put on a very old bathing suit of mine over his thermals and was going to be a wrestler. It. Was. Hilarious. But, he decided against it.
Jeebs eventually became the neighborhood trick or treat shuttle. It was a fun night, I just wish I had gotten on the trailer or had my little brother in his scream mask to help me scare the pants off of people. That's what makes it fun!!
