Octoberfest!

Well my favorite time of year is here! I love October through December...there's always something in the works to plan, etc. It's the first of October and we were all ready to go "ghosting" in our neighborhood but we have to wait until tomorrow because of the rain. This is where me, Dave, Bob and Lisa (our neighbors) jump in the golf cart (the get away vehicle) with our goodie bags. We leave a goodie bag at someone's house, tape a ghost to thier door, ring the door bell and RUN.......... Well, I'm not too good at the running part so I like to drive the get away vehicle! The idea (and instructions to the recipient of the goodie bag) is for them to "ghost" two other neighbors. Of course the neighbors that get ghosted by us have it the best because I make sure that the house that we're ghosting has kids (good kids!) and that I have plenty of fun stuff in the goodie bags. Actually I have plastic pumpkins that I fill up. Anyway, it's the beginning of our Halloween season. Next we'll be working on costumes. It sounds like Jenn is going to be Jasmine (from Aladdin) so that will be our first costume. Addison is going to be Piglet (I can't wait to work on that one) and the jury is still out on Angela. We have some birthdays this month too: Me, Jenn, Jonas and Gin Gin.






Well, happy October! I'll check back later with updates.

You guys are so much fun. I wish I could be there for this. I would love to be part of "the get away". I would even give the running a shot. Jenn will make a very nice Jasmine and don't forget the pictures. Addison is going to be the perfect little piglet. Happy birthday to all you October babies!!!!!
