So we had a BUSY day today….

First, I know you are all wondering about the minivan. I took it to the mechanic and it’s a no go, which I’m actually good with because I just don’t think I’m ready for the minivan move (ha ha ha, Joy!) although I think it would help to separate the boys for sure in the car. Maybe a Suburban or Tahoe? We’ll see what we can find, no hurry.

We got the boys dressed up for the foster parent Halloween party, but decided to kill two bibrds with one stone and get the boys Halloween pictures done tonight, too while they were in costume. The shoot went VERY well and we were so happy with how the pictures turned out. It isn’t often that all the guys smile, pose or even stay in the shot. Here’s the link if you want to see the pictures, just click on “start slideshow” and you can get bigger pictures!

So, onto the foster parent party….it was insane but fun. Lots of kids running around in costumes, even some of the adults dressed up. They had a pumpking bean bag toss, “trick or treating” where the kids went from table to table, a place to fish for prizes and a costume contest. THE BOYS WON FIRST PLACE IN THEIR AGE CATEGORY! They won $20 so we told them we would buy them the “Over the Hedge” dvd for winning.
