finally found a way to tackle my to do list (still ignoring the stuff on my mind)... Luke Bryan music.... I may be slightly obsessed with him now, and I am ok with that.

Has so much on her mind and to do list. I just want to ignore and run away from both..... So that's exactly what I'm going to do!

Pretty sure its the candy withdrawals, but something has me in a funky mood this am.

Halloween 2011

Halloween season for me starts to show up mid summer, then from Labor Day on I am consumed by it and then somewhere around the Friday a week before Halloween, I am OVER it.. which wasn't a bad situation pre toddler but now.. i have to push on for another week to celebrate for Oliver.

Well it was worth the push. Last night was truly special. We had the family over for dinner, then headed out trick or treating through the neighborhood down our street. i had no idea our neighborhood got so into it. We brought the stroller so we can cover as many houses as possible and rack up plenty of candy that is not going to make losing 8 pounds before thanksgiving very easy. We got comment, after comment about our cute Garden Gnome, Santa Claus and Elf and what a polite little gnome he was, saying something that resembles "trick or treat" and thank you to every house. Probably the most unique moment of the night was the horse! Yeah that's right.. During dinner I answered the door, passed out candy to the trick or treaters and as i was surveying the costumes i saw a horse in the background right there at my front door. haha.. that cowgirl (and cowgirls mom who got the back end of the horse) deserved an award for best accessory!!! I feel the house of the driveway that the horse pooped in doesn't feel the same as me. Oliver loved seeing the horse but liked it from a distance.

We did some other fun Halloween activities over the past week too. Last Wednesday we went to Trunk or Treat at Gigi and Pop Pop's church which was fun. Oliver got to go through a haunted Pool Bus which was his favorite part of that evening. A few weeks ago we went to Corn Dawgs which is a corn maze and activity place and it was awesome. They had a slide there that Oliver literally went down 25 times... it was an awesome slide and i am thoroughly looking forward to riding down again next year. This past Sunday my mom, Oliver and I all went to the Buford Corn Maze and got a pumpkin and saw a cow and some horseys. Oliver also played in the corn kernel pit which is a favorite of his.

Great Halloween... others will be hard to top i think but Im sure we will try!!
