Halloween

We have had a fun Halloween weekend! We had family come intp town, Juan sister and her boyfriend from Portland to join us in the festivities. We had a ward trunk or treat on Friday night that was lamer then lame, so we left after 30 minutes of standing around and doing nothing. Juan and Vicky arrived later that night and his other sister Ana also came in with her family. We had a fun time catching up eating homemade pizza and caramel corn! Yummy!

Since we didn't have fun at ours, we crashed the one in Basin City cause thats what we do. But first things first, we had to make a stop at the grandparents house.

And a second stop after the trunk or treat. Double the candy!

And our little puppy just waiting for us

I feel guilty as a mom. I'm supposed to be the cool mom that carves pumpkins with her kids, takes the time to read them Halloween books, and get them all excited about holidays. Not gonna lie, I'm not the mom that I thought I would be. Partly because it takes so much energy to do things with Damon. I feel bad if I leave him behind, but feel bad if I don't do what I need to for Keenan. I know that Keenan needs to experience all that his little life can bring and I don't feel that I am giving him that. We used to do so well at keeping up traditions and having a party all the time. I keep telling myself that when we get settled, I will restart these things. I just hope I find the energy I once had to do it again...

Now that Halloween is over, and WAY too much candy has been consumed and eaten, it's time to focus on Thanksgiving. Another reason to eat! yah....
