I love Halloween. I love to dress up and I love the spirit of ghost and goblins. I love watching the kids get excited about what they will dress up as. I love hearing them giggle each time a silly, cute or scary costume walks by. I myself, am not creative, nor do I sew or make anything. I always buy from the store... not so much fun, but next year I promised my kids we would come up with some contest winning costumes. My two girls are night and day different from one another. 8 yr old is very timid and suffers from some serious social anxiety. She wanted to be a CUTE witch, she wouldn't even wear the black wig. 4 yr old is polar opposite. She is loud, silly, wants all the attention and cracks me up daily. I love my little ladies so much and they bring so much joy and happiness to my life. Lately I have felt like a single mother. My hubby is the CFO at the hospital and it is budget season. So for about 2 months he has been working more and more. The last two weeks he has worked 14 hr days. So for Halloween we were able to spend a little quality time with our favorite man/daddy. Thank Goodness the finale budget meeting is Wed.
Guess what???? I did NOT eat one piece of candy... Not one... Candy Smackdown... and I was rewarded with 1 1/2 pounds lost.
Wow... I am still in shock. I won Tall Mom's giveaway and received this most fabulous jacket. I wonder what I will be wearing (and taking all kinds of pics for Tall Mom) on Dec 12Th at my next marathon in Huntsville AL. I definitely think I need the Capri's, or the Skort to finish the outfit.

Congrats on the win! And I love the girls' costumes.
I was so happy you won - I know you really wanted it! ENJOY and yes, please take plenty of pics for us.
CONGRATS on the candy smackdown. I did the same. Haven't had ONE nibble. I knew it woudl be ALL or NOTHING for me. Moderation? What's that? So I made the decision to have zero candy this year. SUCCESS! Still avoiding the leftovers at work. Why must people torment me so?!
No way! Lucky! That's super cute!
I was happy when I saw you won. The capris and skort were my other favorites...You'll look great in that!
Skort and bows for pretty Janice!! Congrats lady..
Wow oh wow I wish I could have avoided the candy bowl.. I have eaten 6 fun sized candy bars just today.. OOPS!! Gotta get that in check.
Hugs!! If you do buy the matching gear let me know so I can tell my Brooks guy.. He will be HAPPY..
What a weekend!! Congrats. And you're so focused, great job!
Yay for you on the win! That jacket is super cute! You're gonna be stylin' for sure!
Congrats! You should go for the Capris. ;)
Capris. I got a thing about running in a skirt...
Mission accomplished - she is a very CUTE witch. You have beautiful girls!!!
Congratulations on the giveaway. Super cute jacket!!
ohh get the capri's I love capri pants for running, no chaffing!
your girls are so cute and I love that they have their own very distinct take on life
congrats on winning the giveaway...great pics of the kids
I read your FB message this morning. UGH!! So 2 ideas.
1. Check on Craigslist, some times runners will try to resell bibs when they cant run.
2. Ask the race directors to put you on a list if any runners contact them to say they can no longer run.
What an uber bummer.
Your comment this morning made me GRIN.. HUGS!!
