Best Parts of the Day-
1. Implemented first ever Movie Marathon pretty much all day prior to Trick or Treat.
2. Liam took a couple hour nap so S. and I could whip up scary snacks for the post T or T party: bloody fingers ( def not vegan) and mummy pizzas. (Finally I am able to make creations with my kids!!)
3. Coloring Scarlet's hair black with white streaks for her vampiress costume. She dug it! (Wash out color.)

Worst Parts of the Day-
1. A tad hectic for me to try to do last minute adjustments to both kids' costumes (case in point why man-to-man defense is effective) and also ready throw on my Cruella Deville number.
2. After a solid 3 months of talking about wanting to be a ghost for Halloween and wearing a ghost costume around daily, Liam pretty much refused to don his ghost costume today. Save for 2 pictures snapped in 4 seconds, he didn't wear it.
3. He went to a few houses in his normal wear (Scarlet was mortified, "You are going as yourself for Halloween, Liam!") and ended Trick or Treat '09 in 8 minutes flat.
4. Never did get to be Cruella, officially. Did wear a nice mink around, though. Thanks, G-ma!

Scarlet Quote:
As we entered home of friends getting ready for T or T, Scar declares: "My dad was really nice to let me borrow his (fake) blood capsules. He uses them on stage now and again, but he said I could use his, no problem." Perks of having rocker, blood-spewing father.

Happy Birthday, Sweet Amy!!! What a fantastic b-day. (Am jealous...)
