Almost Ready for Halloween

Yes...I am almost ready for Halloween. This was not the case last year http://fosterfamily4four.blogspot.com/2009/10/note-to-self.html I've had the kids costumes for over 3 weeks now. I bought Jackson two at a garage sale this year and Emma found one at Walmart. I am not doing caramel apples this year (we've cut down on sugar at our house). The only thing left is to carve pumpkins and my kids really don't like it. They think they do, but once the top is off and they smell inside the pumpkin...at least one of them gags. Then Dan and I end up doing the rest, including clean up.
