Halloween

Eli trick or treated with Edel and the kids... or should I just say Ms. Edel. The kids ran off and did big kid stuff, but he had a great time. It was me that had the hardest time adjusting to not being in "our" neighborhood. This was the first year he didn't trick or treat our circle. One thing I can't figure out... is why the neighbors across the street are such Halloween haters. I mean last year there was just the "No Candy" sign on the door. This time they did a picture sign on the door and then a yard sign incase one sign wasn't enough.

Our annual Pumpkin Patch trip was a blast. Eli was all about the pumpkins. I'm glad we have this tradition... it makes me happy. It has become a serious tradition in our little family and I hope it always stays that way.

Treat Night @ Cork Elementary....

Fun was had by all, and choco was had by Eli. After making his rounds we came back to my room and hung out for a while. Rose brought Grace and Cici... Eli did a little candy nibbling and music making.

We crashed another Stephens family vacation down to Fort Myers. I love the quirky little motel and I needed some sunshine. It wasn't until we were all sitting on the beach and no matter how much sunscreen I put on I realized the meds I was put on for the stupid headache had the "no sunlight" clause. I headed back to the room to take a shower and watch a little football while my boys had a good time at the beach. They built castles, truck roads, and even got in the water. Last spring when we were there Eli refused to get in the water... so that was a big deal. I'm sad I missed it but glad he got to have a good time with his daddy.
